Portfolio overview

Mb-microtec Ag has been granted 11 US utility patents between 2016 and 2025, placing Mb-microtec Ag at rank #25,608 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 22 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 21.9 claims per patent with primary concentration in G21H (OBTAINING ENERGY FROM RADIOACTIVE SOURCES; APPLICATIONS OF RADIATION FROM RADIOACTIVE SOURCES, NOT OTHERWISE PROVIDED FOR; UTILISING COSMIC RADIATION). As a Foreign Corporation, Mb-microtec Ag is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, mb-microtec sits between Ifixit (11 patents, rank #25,604) and 1globe Biomedical Co., Ltd. (10 patents, rank #25,612) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 58.3/100 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 7 grants, compared with 4 in the 2015–2019 window, a +75% shift in five-year velocity. An acceleration of this magnitude signals aggressive R&D investment and expanding technical ambition. 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. Mb-microtec Ag's 21.9 average claims per patent reflects complex, broadly scoped inventions that are difficult for competitors to design around, while a multi-domain presence across 22 subclasses balances depth with breadth. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Mb-microtec Ag against peers pursuing similar technology classes.
