Company patents
BASF Agro Trademarks GmbH
BASF Agro Trademarks GmbH, despite its name suggesting an agricultural focus, surprisingly dedicates a significant 28.6% of its patent portfolio to 'Business Methods & Fintech', which saw a remarkable 150.0% YoY growth in 2024 before a subsequent decline. This indicates a strategic pivot towards digital and financial aspects, while traditional areas like 'Horticulture & Forestry' remain a minor 4.3% of the portfolio, and 'Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (Drones)' and 'Machine Learning & AI' show a notable decline in patenting activity, with 0 patents so far in 2026 for both categories.
