Where GT's grants concentrate

GT Contact Co., Ltd. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 2 CPC subclasses with 100% of grants classified under H01R (Electrically-conductive CONNECTIONS; Structural Associations OF A Plurality OF Mutually-insulated Electrical Connecting ELEMENTS; Coupling DEVICES; Current Collectors). Peak complete grant year is 2015 (3 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2016. By volume, GT sits between Gruppo Fabbri Vignola S.P.A. and Guangdong Juhua Printed Display Technology Co., Ltd.

GT's three-year grant acceleration

GT Contact Co., Ltd. shows 2 grants in 2022–2024 against only 0 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.
