The verdict
United holds 244 US patents across 189 technology areas, rank #1,690 of 50,000 tracked assignees.
United ARAB Emirates University has been granted 244 US utility patents between 2015 and 2025, placing United ARAB Emirates University at rank #1,690 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 189 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 13.3 claims per patent with primary concentration in G01N (INVESTIGATING OR ANALYSING MATERIALS BY DETERMINING THEIR CHEMICAL OR PHYSICAL PROPERTIES). As a Foreign Corporation, United ARAB Emirates University is one of the broader-portfolio assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, United sits between LG Hausys, Ltd. (244 patents, rank #1,686) and Korea Institute OF Industrial Technology (243 patents, rank #1,694) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 57.3/100 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 174 grants, compared with 70 in the 2015–2019 window, a +149% 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. United ARAB Emirates University's 13.3 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while a diversified footprint across 100+ CPC subclasses spreads risk across many technology fronts. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark United ARAB Emirates University against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio
United's 244 grants land it in the top 5% 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.
