Portfolio overview

Sharif University Of Technology has been granted 17 US utility patents between 2019 and 2025, placing Sharif University Of Technology at #17,176 of 50,000 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 28 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 15.1 claims per patent with primary concentration in G06F (ELECTRIC DIGITAL DATA PROCESSING). As a Foreign Corporation, Sharif University Of Technology is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Sharif sits between Selkirk Sport, Llc (17 patents, rank #17,210) and Shenzhen Corerain Technologies Co., Ltd. (17 patents, rank #17,218) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 56.1/100 blends portfolio volume, grant velocity, technology breadth, and claim depth into a single comparable measure drawn directly from USPTO PatentsView records.

Grant cadence records the difference between two grant-year windows. Between 2020 and 2024 the company received 14 grants, compared with 1 in the 2015–2019 window, a +1300% shift in five-year grant velocity. Both windows cover five complete grant years; the latest PatentsView year is a partial release and is excluded from this comparison, though it still appears in the yearly table and chart below. Grant timing can lag the related application by years, so this comparison does not establish current R&D spending, strategic intent, or a company’s application activity. The Foreign Corporation classification provides context for the assignee record, not a conclusion about its business strategy.

Claim depth and technology breadth describe this aggregate record. Sharif University Of Technology's 15.1 average claims per patent is an average count, not a measure of claim scope, legal strength, enforceability, or design-around risk. The record spans 28 CPC subclasses. Combined with portfolio volume, these figures let readers compare the documented grant records of assignees in similar technology classes.
