What this shows Shandong's Innovation Score is 38.3/100 (top 41% 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.

Does more volume mean deeper claims for Shandong?

Each dot is one of Shandong’s 8 nearest volume peers (same corpus rank neighbourhood as the chart above), placed by total granted patents (horizontal) against average claims per patent (vertical). Shandong’s own 17.2 claims/patent is ABOVE the 11.2 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Shandong's grants concentrate

Shandong Institute OF Quantum Science AND Technology Co., Ltd. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 5 CPC subclasses with 100% of grants classified under H04L (Transmission OF Digital Information, e.g. Telegraphic Communication). Peak complete grant year is 2017 (3 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2020. By volume, Shandong sits between SFI Electronics Technology Inc. and Shang HAI PAN SHI TOU ZI Guan LI YOU Xian Gong SI.

Shandong's three-year grant acceleration

Shandong Institute OF Quantum Science AND Technology Co., Ltd. shows 2 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.
