Portfolio overview

Council OF Scientific AND Industrial Research has been granted 720 US utility patents between 2015 and 2025, placing Council OF Scientific AND Industrial Research at rank #613 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 179 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 9.9 claims per patent with primary concentration in C07D (HETEROCYCLIC COMPOUNDS). As a Foreign Corporation, Council OF Scientific AND Industrial Research is one of the broader-portfolio assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Council sits between ST. JUDE Medical, Cardiology Division, Inc. (727 patents, rank #609) and T-mobile Innovations Llc (715 patents, rank #617) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 56.4/100 blends portfolio volume, filing velocity, technology breadth, and claim depth into a single comparable measure drawn directly from USPTO PatentsView records.

Filing cadence tells the strategic story. Between 2020 and 2025 the company received 224 grants, compared with 496 in the 2015–2019 window, a -55% shift in five-year velocity. A cooling filing rate may reflect portfolio consolidation, shifting priorities, or reduced R&D throughput. The Foreign Corporation classification further shapes interpretation, since corporate, government, and individual filers pursue patents for materially different reasons.

Claim depth and technology breadth together indicate competitive posture. Council OF Scientific AND Industrial Research's 9.9 average claims per patent suggests focused, narrowly drawn claims typical of single-invention filings, while a diversified footprint across 100+ CPC subclasses spreads risk across many technology fronts. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Council OF Scientific AND Industrial Research against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio

Council's 720 grants land it in the top 6% by Innovation Score, but volume alone doesn't tell you where the strength sits.

  • Read that count against the largest US assignees before treating it as dominance - Council ranks #613 of 50,000. Top 50 holders
  • Most of this portfolio concentrates in C07D - see who else leads that technology area. C07D leaders
  • Check what the four-part Innovation Score actually rewards before comparing it to another company. How the score works

Patent counts and the Innovation Score measure patenting activity, not commercial success or the legal strength of any patent. Many patents are filed defensively. Verify the status of an individual patent against official USPTO records.
