Does more volume mean deeper claims for Florida?
Each dot is one of Florida’s 8 nearest volume peers (same corpus rank neighbourhood as the chart above), placed by total granted patents (horizontal) against average claims per patent (vertical). Florida’s own 16.9 claims/patent is at or below the 18.8 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.
How Florida's grant cadence moved
Between 2020–2024, Florida Atlantic University Board of Trustees received 17 grants versus 5 in 2015–2019 (+240% equal-window velocity, above median growth). Across complete PatentsView years, output peaked in 2024 at 6 grants and bottomed in 2015 at 1. Lead class G01N accounts for 34.5% of the portfolio across 54 subclasses. Volume neighbours: Finewell Co., Ltd. (#10,614) and Geistlich Pharma AG (#10,622).
Florida's three-year grant acceleration
Florida Atlantic University Board of Trustees shows 11 grants in 2022–2024 against only 9 in 2019–2021. That prior window is too thin for a growth multiple (rename and spin-out assignees look artificially high when the baseline is near zero), so PlainPatent withholds a ranked acceleration claim here.
