Company patents
IDEMIA FRANCE
IDEMIA FRANCE's patent strategy reveals a surprising shift in focus, with a significant 200.0% year-over-year growth in Computer Security patents in 2026 so far, indicating an emerging priority despite a -71.4% decline in the previous year. While Data Recognition (Barcodes, OCR) remains its largest category at 25.0% of its portfolio, its patenting activity in this area has seen a -62.5% decline so far in 2026, suggesting a potential re-evaluation of investment in its traditional core.
