Where Healthpartners's grants concentrate

HealthPartners Research & Education is a focused PatentsView assignee: 9 CPC subclasses with 88.9% of grants classified under A61K (Preparations FOR Medical, Dental OR Toiletry Purposes). Peak complete grant year is 2016 (2 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2023. By volume, Healthpartners sits between Harris Technology, LLC and Heila Technologies, Inc..

Healthpartners's three-year grant acceleration

HealthPartners Research & Education shows 1 grants in 2022–2024 against only 4 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.
