Does more volume mean deeper claims for Myongji?
Each dot is one of Myongji’s 8 nearest volume peers (same corpus rank neighbourhood as the chart above), placed by total granted patents (horizontal) against average claims per patent (vertical). Myongji’s own 13.4 claims/patent is ABOVE the 11.2 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.
How Myongji's grant cadence moved
Between 2020–2024, Myongji University Industry and Academia Cooperation Foundation received 23 grants versus 23 in 2015–2019 (+0% equal-window velocity, above median growth). Across complete PatentsView years, output peaked in 2016 at 6 grants and bottomed in 2024 at 2. Lead class B60L accounts for 20.4% of the portfolio across 59 subclasses. Volume neighbours: Medtronic Monitoring, Inc. (#6,813) and Natuzzi S.p.A. (#6,821).
Myongji's three-year grant acceleration
Myongji University Industry and Academia Cooperation Foundation shows 12 grants in 2022–2024 against only 14 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.
