What this shows Vandewiele's Innovation Score is 38.9/100 (top 40% 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.

Where Vandewiele's grants concentrate

Vandewiele NV is a focused PatentsView assignee: 10 CPC subclasses with 63.6% of grants classified under D05C (EMBROIDERING; Tufting). Peak complete grant year is 2023 (6 grants) versus a trough of 2 in 2019. By volume, Vandewiele sits between Viant AS&O Holdings, LLC and Vinyl Development LLC.

Vandewiele's three-year grant acceleration

Vandewiele NV shows 12 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.
