What this shows Nextchem's Innovation Score is 49.3/100 (top 15% of the PatentsView-derived corpus). The chart places that score against the nearest Innovation Score peers plus corpus poles, not a reprint of the volume ranking.

Where Nextchem's grants concentrate

Nextchem S.P.A. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 13 CPC subclasses with 60% of grants classified under C07C (Acyclic OR Carbocyclic Compounds). Peak complete grant year is 2022 (3 grants) versus a trough of 2 in 2023. By volume, Nextchem sits between Newteq Holding B.V. and NF CO.,Ltd.

Nextchem's three-year grant acceleration

Nextchem S.P.A. shows 5 grants in 2022–2024 against only 0 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.
