Where Illumix's grants concentrate

Illumix Surgical Canada Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 3 CPC subclasses with 100% of grants classified under A61B (DIAGNOSIS; SURGERY; Identification). Peak complete grant year is 2019 (3 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2017. By volume, Illumix sits between Italfarmaco SPA and Immutep S.A.S..

Illumix's three-year grant acceleration

Illumix Surgical Canada Inc. shows 3 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.
