What this shows Postech's Innovation Score is 70.6/100 (top 1% 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.
Grant history spans 2021–2025. Across complete PatentsView years, output peaked in 2024 at 45 grants and bottomed in 2021 at 7. Lead class H01Q accounts for 13.9% of the portfolio across 118 subclasses. Volume neighbours: LSI (#2,575) and Zhejiang LAB (#2,583).
Postech Research and Business Development Foundation shows 97 grants in 2022–2024 against only 7 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.
