Portfolio overview

Georgia Tech Research Corporation has been granted 870 US utility patents between 2015 and 2025, placing Georgia Tech Research Corporation at rank #516 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 260 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 19.0 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, Georgia Tech Research Corporation is one of the broader-portfolio assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Georgia sits between Charter Communications Operating, Llc (878 patents, rank #512) and Avago Technologies International Sales Pte. Limited (864 patents, rank #520) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 67.5/100 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 504 grants, compared with 366 in the 2015–2019 window, a +38% 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 Tech Research Corporation's 19.0 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 Georgia Tech Research Corporation against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

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.
