Where Texas's grants concentrate

Texas Children's Hospital is a focused PatentsView assignee: 9 CPC subclasses with 77.8% of grants classified under A61K (Preparations FOR Medical, Dental OR Toiletry Purposes). Peak complete grant year is 2021 (3 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2020. By volume, Texas sits between Tescan Brno s.r.o. and The Government of the United States of American, as represented by the Secretary, Department of Health and Human Services.

Texas's three-year grant acceleration

Texas Children's Hospital shows 4 grants in 2022–2024 against only 4 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.
