Portfolio overview
LUCASFILM ENTERTAINMENT COMPANY LTD. has been granted 142 US utility patents between 2015 and 2025, placing LUCASFILM ENTERTAINMENT COMPANY LTD. at rank #2,727 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 26 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 20.5 claims per patent with primary concentration in G06T (IMAGE DATA PROCESSING OR GENERATION, IN GENERAL). As a US Corporation, LUCASFILM ENTERTAINMENT COMPANY LTD. is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. The composite Innovation Score of 51.3/100 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 55 grants, compared with 87 in the 2015–2019 window — a -37% shift in five-year velocity. A cooling filing rate may reflect portfolio consolidation, shifting priorities, or reduced R&D throughput. The US 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. LUCASFILM ENTERTAINMENT COMPANY LTD.'s 20.5 average claims per patent reflects complex, broadly scoped inventions that are difficult for competitors to design around, while a multi-domain presence across 26 subclasses balances depth with breadth. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark LUCASFILM ENTERTAINMENT COMPANY LTD. against peers pursuing similar technology classes.
