Does more volume mean deeper claims for Technion?
Each dot is one of Technion’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). Technion’s own 17.8 claims/patent is ABOVE the 16.6 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.
How Technion's grant cadence moved
Between 2020–2024, Technion Research & Development Foundation Limited received 254 grants versus 247 in 2015–2019 (+3% equal-window velocity, above median growth). Across complete PatentsView years, output peaked in 2021 at 68 grants and bottomed in 2018 at 36. Lead class G01N accounts for 18.1% of the portfolio across 181 subclasses. Volume neighbours: Citic Dicastal Co., Ltd. (#847) and Medtronic Vascular, Inc. (#855).
Technion's three-year grant acceleration
From 2019–2021 to 2022–2024, Technion Research & Development Foundation Limited moved from 163 to 138 grants (0.85x the prior three-year total, a multiple, not a CAGR). Among 3,296 tracked assignees with ≥100 grants and ≥20 prior-period grants, that multiple ranks #1,668. See the growth leaderboard.
