Where Tokyo's grants concentrate

Tokyo University of Pharmacy and Life Sciences is a focused PatentsView assignee: 11 CPC subclasses with 77.8% of grants classified under A61P (Specific Therapeutic Activity OF Chemical Compounds OR Medicinal Preparations). Peak complete grant year is 2020 (2 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2015. By volume, Tokyo sits between Tippmann Companies LLC and Total E&P Canada Ltd..

Tokyo's three-year grant acceleration

Tokyo University of Pharmacy and Life Sciences 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.
