Portfolio overview

Universidade DO Porto has been granted 37 US utility patents between 2015 and 2025, placing Universidade DO Porto at #8,707 of 50,000 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 65 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 15.5 claims per patent with primary concentration in A61K (PREPARATIONS FOR MEDICAL, DENTAL OR TOILETRY PURPOSES). As a Foreign Corporation, Universidade DO Porto is one of the broader-portfolio assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Universidade sits between Toray Advanced Materials Korea Inc. (37 patents, rank #8,702) and Valeda Company, Llc (37 patents, rank #8,710) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 56.2/100 blends portfolio volume, grant velocity, technology breadth, and claim depth into a single comparable measure drawn directly from USPTO PatentsView records.

Grant cadence records the difference between two grant-year windows. Between 2020 and 2024 the company received 18 grants, compared with 17 in the 2015–2019 window, a +6% shift in five-year grant velocity. Both windows cover five complete grant years; the latest PatentsView year is a partial release and is excluded from this comparison, though it still appears in the yearly table and chart below. Grant timing can lag the related application by years, so this comparison does not establish current R&D spending, strategic intent, or a company’s application activity. The Foreign Corporation classification provides context for the assignee record, not a conclusion about its business strategy.

Claim depth and technology breadth describe this aggregate record. Universidade DO Porto's 15.5 average claims per patent is an average count, not a measure of claim scope, legal strength, enforceability, or design-around risk. The record spans 65 CPC subclasses. Combined with portfolio volume, these figures let readers compare the documented grant records of assignees in similar technology classes.
