What this shows Harting's Innovation Score is 37.8/100 (top 43% of the PatentsView-derived corpus). The chart places that score against the nearest Innovation Score peers plus corpus poles, not a reprint of the volume ranking.

Where Harting's grants concentrate

Harting AG is a focused PatentsView assignee: 5 CPC subclasses with 40% of grants classified under H05K (Printed CIRCUITS; Casings OR Constructional Details OF Electric APPARATUS; Manufacture OF Assemblages OF Electrical Components). Peak complete grant year is 2022 (2 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2021. By volume, Harting sits between Harada Electronics Industry Co., Ltd. and Haventec PTY Ltd.

Harting's three-year grant acceleration

Harting AG shows 4 grants in 2022–2024 against only 1 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.
