Where Maine's grants concentrate

Maine Medical Center is a focused PatentsView assignee: 8 CPC subclasses with 60% of grants classified under A61K (Preparations FOR Medical, Dental OR Toiletry Purposes). Peak complete grant year is 2015 (2 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2017. By volume, Maine sits between MY Virtual Reality Software AS and Marubun Corporation.

Maine's three-year grant acceleration

Maine Medical Center shows 5 grants in 2022–2024 against only 1 in 2019–2021. That prior window is too thin for a growth multiple (rename and spin-out assignees look artificially high when the baseline is near zero), so PlainPatent withholds a ranked acceleration claim here.
