USPTO PatentsView assignee record - 67 granted patents across 32 technology areas, active 2017–2022. Filing-trend and competitive-moat analysis cross-referenced to USPTO Patent Public Search. Primary class: H10H (INORGANIC LIGHT-EMITTING SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICES HAVING POTENTIAL BARRIERS).
The verdict
Lumileds holds 67 US patents across 32 technology areas, rank #5,167 of 50,000 tracked assignees.
Lumileds Holding B.v. has been granted 67 US utility patents between 2017 and 2022, placing Lumileds Holding B.v. at rank #5,167 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 32 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 11.0 claims per patent with primary concentration in H10H (INORGANIC LIGHT-EMITTING SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICES HAVING POTENTIAL BARRIERS). As a US Corporation, Lumileds Holding B.v. is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Lumileds sits between IGT Global Soulutions Corporation (67 patents, rank #5,163) and Minerva Surgical, Inc. (67 patents, rank #5,171) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 41.6/100 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 40 grants, compared with 27 in the 2015–2019 window, a +48% shift in five-year velocity. Steady filing volume suggests sustained innovation without dramatic pivots. 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. Lumileds Holding B.v.'s 11.0 average claims per patent suggests focused, narrowly drawn claims typical of single-invention filings, while a multi-domain presence across 32 subclasses balances depth with breadth. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Lumileds Holding B.v. against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio
Lumileds's 67 grants land it in the top 33% 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.
