Portfolio overview

Vilnius University has been granted 32 US utility patents between 2016 and 2025, placing Vilnius University at #9,923 of 50,000 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 24 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 18.3 claims per patent with primary concentration in C12Q (MEASURING OR TESTING PROCESSES INVOLVING ENZYMES, NUCLEIC ACIDS OR MICROORGANISMS ; COMPOSITIONS OR TEST PAPERS THEREFOR; PROCESSES OF PREPARING SUCH COMPOSITIONS; CONDITION-RESPONSIVE CONTROL IN MICR). As a Foreign Corporation, Vilnius University is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Vilnius sits between Vision Industries Group, Inc. (32 patents, rank #9,921) and Webasto-edscha Cabrio Gmbh (32 patents, rank #9,929) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 48.4/100 blends portfolio volume, grant velocity, technology breadth, and claim depth into a single comparable measure drawn directly from USPTO PatentsView records.

Grant cadence records the difference between two grant-year windows. Between 2020 and 2024 the company received 18 grants, compared with 10 in the 2015–2019 window, a +80% shift in five-year grant velocity. Both windows cover five complete grant years; the latest PatentsView year is a partial release and is excluded from this comparison, though it still appears in the yearly table and chart below. Grant timing can lag the related application by years, so this comparison does not establish current R&D spending, strategic intent, or a company’s application activity. The Foreign Corporation classification provides context for the assignee record, not a conclusion about its business strategy.

Claim depth and technology breadth describe this aggregate record. Vilnius University's 18.3 average claims per patent is an average count, not a measure of claim scope, legal strength, enforceability, or design-around risk. The record spans 24 CPC subclasses. Combined with portfolio volume, these figures let readers compare the documented grant records of assignees in similar technology classes.
