Where Nextpat's grants concentrate

Nextpat Limited is a focused PatentsView assignee: 6 CPC subclasses with 80% of grants classified under G06Q (Information AND Communication Technology [ICT] Specially Adapted FOR Administrative, Commercial, Financial, Managerial OR Supervisory PURPOSES; Systems OR Methods Specially Adapted FOR Administrative,). Peak complete grant year is 2017 (2 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2015. By volume, Nextpat sits between NEX Medical Antiseptics S.R.L. and Nfant Labs, Inc..

Nextpat's three-year grant acceleration

Nextpat Limited shows 1 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.
