This portfolio spans 8 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 15.0 claims per patent with primary concentration in C07K (PEPTIDES). As a Foreign Corporation, Sunshine Guojian Pharmaceutical (shanghai) Co., Ltd. is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Sunshine sits between Sumitomo Electric Wintec, Inc. (9 patents, rank #30,107) and Suturegard Medical Inc. (9 patents, rank #30,115) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 37.0/100 blends portfolio volume, filing velocity, technology breadth, and claim depth into a single comparable measure drawn directly from USPTO PatentsView records.
Filing cadence tells the strategic story. Between 2020 and 2025 the company received 8 grants, compared with 1 in the 2015–2019 window, a +700% shift in five-year velocity.

Sunshine Guojian Pharmaceutical (shanghai) Co., Ltd.'s 15.0 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while concentration in 8 subclasses points to a focused technical program.

How to use this portfolio
Sunshine's 9 grants land it in the top 45% by Innovation Score, but volume alone doesn't tell you where the strength sits.
Patent counts and the Innovation Score measure patenting activity, not commercial success or the legal strength of any patent. Many patents are filed defensively. Verify the status of an individual patent against official USPTO records.
