Does more volume mean deeper claims for Industry-academic?
Each dot is one of Industry-academic’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). Industry-academic’s own 12.0 claims/patent is at or below the 16.8 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.
Where Industry-academic's grants concentrate
Industry-Academic Cooperation Foundation, Korea National University OF Transportation is a focused PatentsView assignee: 5 CPC subclasses with 83.3% of grants classified under H04W (Wireless Communication Networks). Peak complete grant year is 2022 (2 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2016. By volume, Industry-academic sits between Indigo Agriculture, Inc. and Infinite Athlete, Inc..
Industry-academic's three-year grant acceleration
Industry-Academic Cooperation Foundation, Korea National University OF Transportation shows 2 grants in 2022–2024 against only 0 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.
