What this shows Universidade's Innovation Score is 48.8/100 (top 16% of the PatentsView-derived corpus). The chart places that score against the nearest Innovation Score peers plus corpus poles, not a reprint of the volume ranking.

Does more volume mean deeper claims for Universidade?

Each dot is one of Universidade’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). Universidade’s own 15.3 claims/patent is at or below the 15.6 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where Universidade's grants concentrate

Universidade DE Santiago DE Compostela is a focused PatentsView assignee: 46 CPC subclasses with 67.7% of grants classified under A61K (Preparations FOR Medical, Dental OR Toiletry Purposes). Peak complete grant year is 2016 (5 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2020. By volume, Universidade sits between The Catholic University of America and Universiteit Maastricht.

Universidade's three-year grant acceleration

Universidade DE Santiago DE Compostela shows 6 grants in 2022–2024 against only 11 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.
