The verdict
Leibniz-institut holds 18 US patents across 23 technology areas, rank #16,155 of 50,000 tracked assignees.
Leibniz-institut Für Plasmaforschung UND Technologie E.v. has been granted 18 US utility patents between 2015 and 2025, placing Leibniz-institut Für Plasmaforschung UND Technologie E.v. at rank #16,155 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 23 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 12.3 claims per patent with primary concentration in H05H (PLASMA TECHNIQUE ; PRODUCTION OF ACCELERATED ELECTRICALLY-CHARGED PARTICLES OR OF NEUTRONS; PRODUCTION OR ACCELERATION OF NEUTRAL MOLECULAR OR ATOMIC BEAMS). As a Foreign Corporation, Leibniz-institut Für Plasmaforschung UND Technologie E.v. is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Leibniz-institut sits between Landos Biopharma, Inc. (18 patents, rank #16,151) and Latch Systems, Inc. (18 patents, rank #16,159) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 38.3/100 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 9 grants, compared with 9 in the 2015–2019 window, a +0% shift in five-year velocity. Steady filing volume suggests sustained innovation without dramatic pivots. 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. Leibniz-institut Für Plasmaforschung UND Technologie E.v.'s 12.3 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while a multi-domain presence across 23 subclasses balances depth with breadth. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Leibniz-institut Für Plasmaforschung UND Technologie E.v. against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio
Leibniz-institut's 18 grants land it in the top 41% by Innovation Score, but volume alone doesn't tell you where the strength sits.
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.
