What this shows Jinan's Innovation Score is 49.4/100 (top 15% 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 Jinan?

Each dot is one of Jinan’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). Jinan’s own 8.8 claims/patent is at or below the 17.0 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where Jinan's grants concentrate

Jinan University is a focused PatentsView assignee: 33 CPC subclasses with 30.6% of grants classified under A61P (Specific Therapeutic Activity OF Chemical Compounds OR Medicinal Preparations). Peak complete grant year is 2023 (7 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2016. By volume, Jinan sits between Intellective Ai, Inc. and Kodiak Networks Inc.

Jinan's three-year grant acceleration

Jinan University shows 17 grants in 2022–2024 against only 10 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.
