What this shows Industry-academic's Innovation Score is 35.8/100 (top 48% 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 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 13.1 claims/patent is ABOVE the 10.5 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Industry-academic's grants concentrate

Industry-Academic Cooperation Foundation is a focused PatentsView assignee: 21 CPC subclasses with 23.1% of grants classified under G11C (Static Stores). Peak complete grant year is 2018 (3 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2015. By volume, Industry-academic sits between Ideal Sanitary Ware Co., Ltd. and Integrated Dynamics Engineering GmbH.

Industry-academic's three-year grant acceleration

Industry-Academic Cooperation Foundation shows 2 grants in 2022–2024 against only 5 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.
