Industry-academic Cooperation Foundation OF Sunchon National University is a focused PatentsView assignee: 11 CPC subclasses with 40% of grants classified under G01N (Investigating OR Analysing Materials BY Determining Their Chemical OR Physical Properties). Peak complete grant year is 2022 (2 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2015. By volume, Industry-academic sits between Industeel France and Infac Elecs Co., Ltd..
Industry-academic Cooperation Foundation OF Sunchon National University shows 2 grants in 2022–2024 against only 1 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.
