What this shows Universidade's Innovation Score is 56.2/100 (top 6% 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 15.5 claims/patent is at or below the 16.7 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

How Universidade's grant cadence moved

Between 2020–2024, Universidade DO Porto received 18 grants versus 17 in 2015–2019 (+6% equal-window velocity, above median growth). Across complete PatentsView years, output peaked in 2024 at 12 grants and bottomed in 2022 at 1. Lead class A61K accounts for 21.6% of the portfolio across 65 subclasses. Volume neighbours: Toray Advanced Materials Korea Inc. (#8,702) and Valeda Company, LLC (#8,710).

Universidade's three-year grant acceleration

Universidade DO Porto shows 14 grants in 2022–2024 against only 10 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.
