As a US Corporation, NUTRITION & BIOSCIENCES USA 4, INC. is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. The composite Innovation Score of 67.0/100 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. Historical data spans 2021 through 2025, with 68 total grants over that period. Velocity comparisons require five years of historical filings to calibrate. The US Corporation classification further shapes interpretation, since corporate, government, and individual filers pursue patents for materially different reasons.

NUTRITION & BIOSCIENCES USA 4, INC.'s 20.0 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while a multi-domain presence across 48 subclasses balances depth with breadth. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark NUTRITION & BIOSCIENCES USA 4, INC. against peers pursuing similar technology classes.
