Where Viskase's grants concentrate

Viskase Companies, Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 16 CPC subclasses with 100% of grants classified under A22C (Processing Meat, Poultry, OR Fish). Peak complete grant year is 2022 (2 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2017. By volume, Viskase sits between Virginia Venture Industries, LLC and Viza Electronics Pte. Ltd..

Viskase's three-year grant acceleration

Viskase Companies, Inc. shows 4 grants in 2022–2024 against only 0 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.
