Portfolio overview

Università Degli Studi Di Udine has been granted 27 US utility patents between 2015 and 2024, placing Università Degli Studi Di Udine at rank #11,499 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 21 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 8.2 claims per patent with primary concentration in C07C (ACYCLIC OR CARBOCYCLIC COMPOUNDS). As a Foreign Corporation, Università Degli Studi Di Udine is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Università sits between University OF Sharjah (27 patents, rank #11,495) and Vadient Optics, Llc (27 patents, rank #11,503) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 36.8/100 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 12 grants, compared with 15 in the 2015–2019 window, a -20% shift in five-year velocity. A cooling filing rate may reflect portfolio consolidation, shifting priorities, or reduced R&D throughput. 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. Università Degli Studi Di Udine's 8.2 average claims per patent suggests focused, narrowly drawn claims typical of single-invention filings, while a multi-domain presence across 21 subclasses balances depth with breadth. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Università Degli Studi Di Udine against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

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.
