USPTO PatentsView assignee record - 113 granted patents across 58 technology areas, active 2015–2025. Filing-trend and competitive-moat analysis cross-referenced to USPTO Patent Public Search. Primary class: A61K (PREPARATIONS FOR MEDICAL, DENTAL OR TOILETRY PURPOSES).
The verdict
Georgia holds 113 US patents across 58 technology areas, rank #3,304 of 50,000 tracked assignees.
Georgia State University Research Foundation has been granted 113 US utility patents between 2015 and 2025, placing Georgia State University Research Foundation at rank #3,304 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 58 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 15.6 claims per patent with primary concentration in A61K (PREPARATIONS FOR MEDICAL, DENTAL OR TOILETRY PURPOSES). As a US Corporation, Georgia State University Research Foundation is one of the broader-portfolio assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Georgia sits between Braskem S.a. (113 patents, rank #3,300) and Mikuni Corporation (113 patents, rank #3,308) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 54.3/100 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 63 grants, compared with 50 in the 2015–2019 window, a +26% 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. Georgia State University Research Foundation's 15.6 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while a multi-domain presence across 58 subclasses balances depth with breadth. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Georgia State University Research Foundation against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio
Georgia's 113 grants land it in the top 8% by Innovation Score, but volume alone doesn't tell you where the strength sits.
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.
