Portfolio overview

King Abdulaziz University has been granted 576 US utility patents between 2015 and 2025, placing King Abdulaziz University at rank #798 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 206 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 10.9 claims per patent with primary concentration in A61K (PREPARATIONS FOR MEDICAL, DENTAL OR TOILETRY PURPOSES). As a Foreign Government, King Abdulaziz University is one of the broader-portfolio assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, King sits between ROHR, Inc. (579 patents, rank #794) and The University Of North Carolina At Chapel Hill (575 patents, rank #802) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 58.5/100 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 484 grants, compared with 92 in the 2015–2019 window, a +426% shift in five-year velocity. An acceleration of this magnitude signals aggressive R&D investment and expanding technical ambition. The Foreign Government 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. King Abdulaziz University's 10.9 average claims per patent suggests focused, narrowly drawn claims typical of single-invention filings, while a diversified footprint across 100+ CPC subclasses spreads risk across many technology fronts. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark King Abdulaziz University against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio

King's 576 grants land it in the top 4% by Innovation Score, but volume alone doesn't tell you where the strength sits.

  • Read that count against the largest US assignees before treating it as dominance - King ranks #798 of 50,000. Top 50 holders
  • Most of this portfolio concentrates in A61K - see who else leads that technology area. A61K leaders
  • Check what the four-part Innovation Score actually rewards before comparing it to another company. How the score works

Patent counts and the Innovation Score measure patenting activity, not commercial success or the legal strength of any patent. Many patents are filed defensively. Verify the status of an individual patent against official USPTO records.
