Where SKY's grants concentrate

SKY Motion Research, ULC is a focused PatentsView assignee: 4 CPC subclasses with 70% of grants classified under G01W (Meteorology). Peak complete grant year is 2019 (6 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2021. By volume, SKY sits between SK Nexilis Co., Ltd. and Smartbow GMBH.

SKY's three-year grant acceleration

SKY Motion Research, ULC shows 1 grants in 2022–2024 against only 9 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.
