Portfolio overview

Institute FOR Research & Industry Cooperation Pusan National University has been granted 6 US utility patents between 2016 and 2024, placing Institute FOR Research & Industry Cooperation Pusan National University at rank #40,887 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 12 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 10.5 claims per patent with primary concentration in H01M (PROCESSES OR MEANS, e.g. BATTERIES, FOR THE DIRECT CONVERSION OF CHEMICAL ENERGY INTO ELECTRICAL ENERGY). As a Foreign Corporation, Institute FOR Research & Industry Cooperation Pusan National University is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Institute sits between Institut DE Recherche EN Semiochimie ET Ethologie Appliquee (6 patents, rank #40,883) and Instytut Biochemii I Biofizyki PAN (6 patents, rank #40,891) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 45.3/100 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 5 grants, compared with 1 in the 2015–2019 window, a +400% 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. Institute FOR Research & Industry Cooperation Pusan National University's 10.5 average claims per patent suggests focused, narrowly drawn claims typical of single-invention filings, while concentration in 12 subclasses points to a focused technical program. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Institute FOR Research & Industry Cooperation Pusan National University against peers pursuing similar technology classes.
