What this shows University's Innovation Score is 43.1/100 (top 29% 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 University?

Each dot is one of University’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). University’s own 16.7 claims/patent is at or below the 19.4 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where University's grants concentrate

University of North Florida Board of Trustees is a focused PatentsView assignee: 29 CPC subclasses with 26.3% of grants classified under Y02E (Reduction OF Greenhouse GAS [GHG] Emissions, Related TO Energy Generation, Transmission OR Distribution). Peak complete grant year is 2020 (5 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2017. By volume, University sits between Ubiquisys Limited and Viant Technology LLC.

University's three-year grant acceleration

University of North Florida Board of Trustees 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.
