Portfolio overview
Florida State University Research Foundation, Inc. has been granted 413 US utility patents between 2015 and 2025, placing Florida State University Research Foundation, Inc. at rank #1,047 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 165 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 15.1 claims per patent with primary concentration in Y02E (REDUCTION OF GREENHOUSE GAS [GHG] EMISSIONS, RELATED TO ENERGY GENERATION, TRANSMISSION OR DISTRIBUTION). As a US Corporation, Florida State University Research Foundation, Inc. is one of the broader-portfolio assignees in the PatentsView dataset. The composite Innovation Score of 60.0/100 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 212 grants, compared with 201 in the 2015–2019 window — a +5% shift in five-year velocity. Steady filing volume suggests sustained innovation without dramatic pivots. The US 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. Florida State University Research Foundation, Inc.'s 15.1 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, 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 Florida State University Research Foundation, Inc. against peers pursuing similar technology classes.
