Portfolio overview

Nanoscribe Holding Gmbh has been granted 7 US utility patents between 2015 and 2021, placing Nanoscribe Holding Gmbh at rank #36,683 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 15 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 15.1 claims per patent with primary concentration in B33Y (ADDITIVE MANUFACTURING, i.e. MANUFACTURING OF THREE-DIMENSIONAL [3-D] OBJECTS BY ADDITIVE DEPOSITION, ADDITIVE AGGLOMERATION OR ADDITIVE LAYERING, e.g. BY 3-D PRINTING, STEREOLITHOGRAPHY OR SELECTIVE ). As a Foreign Corporation, Nanoscribe Holding Gmbh is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Nanoscribe sits between Nanosynthesis Plus, Ltd. (7 patents, rank #36,679) and National Molding Llc (7 patents, rank #36,687) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 30.0/100 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 2 grants, compared with 5 in the 2015–2019 window, a -60% shift in five-year velocity. A cooling filing rate may reflect portfolio consolidation, shifting priorities, or reduced R&D throughput. 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. Nanoscribe Holding Gmbh's 15.1 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while concentration in 15 subclasses points to a focused technical program. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Nanoscribe Holding Gmbh against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

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.
