Company patents

NATIONAL UNIVERSITY OF DEFENSE TECHNOLOGY

NATIONAL UNIVERSITY OF DEFENSE TECHNOLOGY demonstrates a surprisingly volatile patent strategy, with its leading category, Machine Learning & AI (18.2% of portfolio), experiencing a dramatic 200.0% growth in 2025 after a 60.0% decline in 2024, only to see an 83.3% decline so far in 2026. This mirrors a broader trend of significant year-over-year fluctuations across many categories, including a 300.0% growth in Wireless Networks in 2025, suggesting a highly dynamic and potentially reactive approach to intellectual property in key computing and communications technologies.
