Company patents

LEDVANCE GMBH

LEDVANCE GMBH's patent strategy shows a surprising decline in its core 'Electric Heating & Lighting Control' (41.8% of portfolio) and 'Lighting Devices (Functional Features)' (40.3% of portfolio) categories, with significant YoY decreases of -33.3% and -46.2% respectively in 2025, and further drops so far in 2026. This suggests a shifting priority away from these traditional strengths, while 'Network Management & Monitoring' shows an emerging focus with a 200.0% YoY growth in 2026, despite its relatively small share of the portfolio (10.4%).
