What this shows Université's Innovation Score is 48.0/100 (top 17% 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 Université?

Each dot is one of Université’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). Université’s own 14.1 claims/patent is at or below the 14.7 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where Université's grants concentrate

UNIVERSITÉ Jean Monnet Saint-etienne is a focused PatentsView assignee: 35 CPC subclasses with 20% of grants classified under B29K (Indexing Scheme Associated With Subclasses B29b, B29c OR B29d, Relating TO Moulding Materials OR TO Materials FOR ; Moulds, ; Reinforcements, Fillers OR Preformed Parts, e.g. Inserts). Peak complete grant year is 2021 (5 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2017. By volume, Université sits between Universite DE Picardie Jules Verne and University of Bath.

Université's three-year grant acceleration

UNIVERSITÉ Jean Monnet Saint-etienne shows 10 grants in 2022–2024 against only 9 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.
