What this shows ST's Innovation Score is 44.1/100 (top 26% 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 ST?
Each dot is one of ST’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). ST’s own 16.7 claims/patent is ABOVE the 14.3 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.
Where ST's grants concentrate
ST Engineering Idirect (EUROPE) CY NV is a focused PatentsView assignee: 3 CPC subclasses with 100% of grants classified under H04B (Transmission). Peak complete grant year is 2022 (3 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2021. By volume, ST sits between SPGPrints B.V. and Staubli Lyon.
ST's three-year grant acceleration
ST Engineering Idirect (EUROPE) CY NV shows 6 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.
