Portfolio overview

Imam Abdulrahman Bin Faisal University has been granted 403 US utility patents between 2017 and 2025, placing Imam Abdulrahman Bin Faisal University at rank #1,071 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 145 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 12.2 claims per patent with primary concentration in A61K (PREPARATIONS FOR MEDICAL, DENTAL OR TOILETRY PURPOSES). As a Foreign Corporation, Imam Abdulrahman Bin Faisal University is one of the broader-portfolio assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Imam sits between Twitter, Inc. (405 patents, rank #1,067) and Fisher-rosemount Systems, Inc. (401 patents, rank #1,075) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 73.1/100 blends portfolio volume, filing velocity, technology breadth, and claim depth into a single comparable measure drawn directly from USPTO PatentsView records.

Filing cadence tells the strategic story. Between 2020 and 2025 the company received 370 grants, compared with 33 in the 2015–2019 window, a +1021% shift in five-year velocity. An acceleration of this magnitude signals aggressive R&D investment and expanding technical ambition. The Foreign Corporation classification further shapes interpretation, since corporate, government, and individual filers pursue patents for materially different reasons.

Claim depth and technology breadth together indicate competitive posture. Imam Abdulrahman Bin Faisal University's 12.2 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while a diversified footprint across 100+ CPC subclasses spreads risk across many technology fronts. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Imam Abdulrahman Bin Faisal University against peers pursuing similar technology classes.
