Portfolio overview

Panasonic Intellectual Property Corporation Of America has been granted 3,535 US utility patents between 2015 and 2025, placing Panasonic Intellectual Property Corporation Of America at rank #102 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 128 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 10.7 claims per patent with primary concentration in H04L (TRANSMISSION OF DIGITAL INFORMATION, e.g. TELEGRAPHIC COMMUNICATION). As a US Corporation, Panasonic Intellectual Property Corporation Of America is one of the broader-portfolio assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Panasonic sits between Bayerische Motoren Werke Aktiengesellschaft (3,749 patents, rank #98) and Whirlpool Corporation (3,434 patents, rank #106) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 68.7/100 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 2,117 grants, compared with 1,418 in the 2015–2019 window, a +49% shift in five-year velocity. Steady filing volume suggests sustained innovation without dramatic pivots. The US 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. Panasonic Intellectual Property Corporation Of America's 10.7 average claims per patent suggests focused, narrowly drawn claims typical of single-invention filings, while a diversified footprint across 100+ CPC subclasses spreads risk across many technology fronts. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Panasonic Intellectual Property Corporation Of America against peers pursuing similar technology classes.
