Company patents
SOCIÉTÉ BIC
SOCIÉTÉ BIC's patent strategy reveals a surprising, albeit declining, focus on computing technologies, with categories like Input/Output & User Interfaces (14.1% of portfolio) and Computer Vision (10.6% of portfolio) representing significant portions despite recent year-over-year declines of -100.0% and -75.0% respectively so far in 2026. While its core "Coating Compositions (Paints, Inks)" remains the largest category at 28.9% of its portfolio, it has also seen a substantial decline of -54.5% so far in 2026, suggesting a broad shift in patenting activity across its portfolio.
