Portfolio overview

Tarbiat Modares University has been granted 8 US utility patents between 2016 and 2024, placing Tarbiat Modares University at rank #33,601 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 17 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 14.9 claims per patent with primary concentration in C10L (FUELS NOT OTHERWISE PROVIDED FOR; NATURAL GAS; SYNTHETIC NATURAL GAS OBTAINED BY PROCESSES NOT COVERED BY SUBCLASSES C10G OR C10K; LIQUIFIED PETROLEUM GAS; USE OF ADDITIVES TO FUELS OR FIRES; FIRE-LIG). As a Foreign Corporation, Tarbiat Modares University is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Tarbiat sits between Tangle, Inc. (8 patents, rank #33,597) and Techni, Llc (8 patents, rank #33,605) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 47.8/100 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 7 grants, compared with 1 in the 2015–2019 window, a +600% shift in five-year velocity. An acceleration of this magnitude signals aggressive R&D investment and expanding technical ambition. The Foreign Corporation classification further shapes interpretation, since corporate, government, and individual filers pursue patents for materially different reasons.

Claim depth and technology breadth together indicate competitive posture. Tarbiat Modares University's 14.9 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while concentration in 17 subclasses points to a focused technical program. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Tarbiat Modares University against peers pursuing similar technology classes.
