Where Hamilton's grants concentrate

Hamilton Bonaduz AG is a focused PatentsView assignee: 32 CPC subclasses with 60.6% of grants classified under G01N (Investigating OR Analysing Materials BY Determining Their Chemical OR Physical Properties). Peak complete grant year is 2017 (10 grants) versus a trough of 4 in 2020. By volume, Hamilton sits between Canon U.S. Life Sciences, Inc. and INDUSTRY—UNIVERSITY Cooperation Foundation Korea Aerospace University.

Hamilton's three-year grant acceleration

Hamilton Bonaduz AG shows 19 grants in 2022–2024 against only 15 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.
