Where NTT's grants concentrate
NTT Innovative Devices Corporation is a focused PatentsView assignee: 7 CPC subclasses with 60% of grants classified under H04L (Transmission OF Digital Information, e.g. Telegraphic Communication). By volume, NTT sits between NTA Enterprise and Numnum, LLC.
NTT's three-year grant acceleration
NTT Innovative Devices Corporation shows 2 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.
