What this shows Hyogo's Innovation Score is 40.4/100 (top 36% 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.

Does more volume mean deeper claims for Hyogo?

Each dot is one of Hyogo’s 8 nearest volume peers (same corpus rank neighbourhood as the chart above), placed by total granted patents (horizontal) against average claims per patent (vertical). Hyogo’s own 12.0 claims/patent is at or below the 14.3 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where Hyogo's grants concentrate

Hyogo College of Medicine is a focused PatentsView assignee: 14 CPC subclasses with 50% of grants classified under A61P (Specific Therapeutic Activity OF Chemical Compounds OR Medicinal Preparations). Peak complete grant year is 2019 (3 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2015. By volume, Hyogo sits between HumanEyes Technologies Ltd. and I.V.A.R. S.P.A..

Hyogo's three-year grant acceleration

Hyogo College of Medicine shows 5 grants in 2022–2024 against only 3 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.
