Portfolio overview

Kongsberg Maritime Sweden AB has been granted 6 US utility patents between 2020 and 2024, placing Kongsberg Maritime Sweden AB at rank #41,201 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 14 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 13.0 claims per patent with primary concentration in B63H (MARINE PROPULSION OR STEERING). As a Foreign Corporation, Kongsberg Maritime Sweden AB is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Kongsberg sits between KOLO Medical, Ltd. (6 patents, rank #41,197) and Kosivana Holdings Limited (6 patents, rank #41,205) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 41.1/100 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. Historical data spans 2020 through 2024, with 6 total grants over that period. Velocity comparisons require five years of historical filings to calibrate. 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. Kongsberg Maritime Sweden AB's 13.0 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while concentration in 14 subclasses points to a focused technical program. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Kongsberg Maritime Sweden AB against peers pursuing similar technology classes.
