What this shows Foundry Innovation & Research 1, Ltd. stamps GRANTS-MICRO, MID-PACK, PHOTO-FINISH, CPC-NARROW, INNOV-THIN, CLAIMS-RICH, TYPE-FRNCORP, SPAN-YRS, BOOK-RICH. Volume places it #18,638 of 50,000; Innovation Score 36.1/100 sits in the top 47% of the PatentsView-derived corpus. Closest grant-volume peer on this plate is Fornia Biosolutions, Inc. (±0 grants).
Foundry Innovation & Research 1, Ltd. has been granted 15 US utility patents between 2020 and 2025, placing Foundry Innovation & Research 1, Ltd. at #18,638 of 50,000 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 5 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 15.5 claims per patent with primary concentration in A61B (DIAGNOSIS; SURGERY; IDENTIFICATION). As a Foreign Corporation, Foundry Innovation & Research 1, Ltd. is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Foundry sits between Fornia Biosolutions, Inc. (15 patents, rank #18,640) and Fuzhou Hangeyi Business Management Co., Ltd. (15 patents, rank #18,648) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 36.1/100 blends portfolio volume, grant velocity, technology breadth, and claim depth into a single comparable measure drawn directly from USPTO PatentsView records.
Grant cadence records the difference between two grant-year windows. Historical data spans 2020 through 2025, with 15 total grants over that period. Grant timing can lag the related application by years, so this comparison does not establish current R&D spending, strategic intent, or a company’s application activity. The Foreign Corporation classification provides context for the assignee record, not a conclusion about its business strategy.
Claim depth and technology breadth describe this aggregate record. Foundry Innovation & Research 1, Ltd.'s 15.5 average claims per patent is an average count, not a measure of claim scope, legal strength, enforceability, or design-around risk. The record spans 5 CPC subclasses. Combined with portfolio volume, these figures let readers compare the documented grant records of assignees in similar technology classes.
