Portfolio overview

YEDA Research AND Development Co. Ltd. has been granted 368 US utility patents between 2015 and 2025, placing YEDA Research AND Development Co. Ltd. at rank #1,155 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 123 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 18.4 claims per patent with primary concentration in A61K (PREPARATIONS FOR MEDICAL, DENTAL OR TOILETRY PURPOSES). As a Foreign Corporation, YEDA Research AND Development Co. Ltd. is one of the broader-portfolio assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, YEDA sits between Gulfstream Aerospace Corporation (368 patents, rank #1,151) and Owens-brockway Glass Container Inc. (367 patents, rank #1,159) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 63.6/100 blends portfolio volume, filing velocity, technology breadth, and claim depth into a single comparable measure drawn directly from USPTO PatentsView records.

Filing cadence tells the strategic story. Between 2020 and 2025 the company received 183 grants, compared with 185 in the 2015–2019 window, a -1% shift in five-year velocity. A cooling filing rate may reflect portfolio consolidation, shifting priorities, or reduced R&D throughput. The Foreign Corporation classification further shapes interpretation, since corporate, government, and individual filers pursue patents for materially different reasons.

Claim depth and technology breadth together indicate competitive posture. YEDA Research AND Development Co. Ltd.'s 18.4 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while a diversified footprint across 100+ CPC subclasses spreads risk across many technology fronts. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark YEDA Research AND Development Co. Ltd. against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

Check what the four-part Innovation Score actually rewards before comparing it to another company. How the score works

Patent counts and the Innovation Score measure patenting activity, not commercial success or the legal strength of any patent. Many patents are filed defensively. Verify the status of an individual patent against official USPTO records.
