What this shows Heptagon's Innovation Score is 50.5/100 (top 13% 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 Heptagon's grants concentrate

Heptagon Micro Optics Pte. Ltd. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 44 CPC subclasses with 53.2% of grants classified under H10F (Inorganic Semiconductor Devices Sensitive TO Infrared Radiation, Light, Electromagnetic Radiation OF Shorter Wavelength OR Corpuscular Radiation). Peak complete grant year is 2017 (26 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2020. By volume, Heptagon sits between Dicerna Pharmaceuticals, Inc. and Imperial College Innovations Ltd.

Heptagon's three-year grant acceleration

Heptagon Micro Optics Pte. Ltd. shows 2 grants in 2022–2024 against only 13 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.
