What this shows Shenzhen's Innovation Score is 39.0/100 (top 39% 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 Shenzhen?

Each dot is one of Shenzhen’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). Shenzhen’s own 11.1 claims/patent is at or below the 13.6 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where Shenzhen's grants concentrate

Shenzhen Institute OF Terahertz Technology AND Innovation is a focused PatentsView assignee: 17 CPC subclasses with 39.3% of grants classified under G01N (Investigating OR Analysing Materials BY Determining Their Chemical OR Physical Properties). Peak complete grant year is 2021 (12 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2018. By volume, Shenzhen sits between Sango Co., Ltd. and Sichuan Kelun-biotech Biopharmaceutical Co., Ltd..

Shenzhen's three-year grant acceleration

Shenzhen Institute OF Terahertz Technology AND Innovation shows 13 grants in 2022–2024 against only 14 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.
