Company patents

RAKUTEN SYMPHONY, INC.

Rakuten Symphony Inc. exhibits a clear focus on communications technology, with Wireless Networks comprising 45.1% of its portfolio and Network Management & Monitoring at 24.7%. Despite significant year-over-year growth in 2025 across nearly all categories, such as Wireless Networks (YoY +746.7%) and System Reliability & Diagnostics (YoY +1800.0%), the sharp decline in patent filings across all categories so far in 2026, including a -92.3% drop in Business Methods & Fintech, suggests a potential shift in patenting strategy or a natural slowdown after a period of rapid expansion.
