Strong Force IoT Portfolio 2016, LLC
Strong Force IoT Portfolio 2016, LLC's patent strategy shows a surprising volatility across its core areas, with significant year-over-year fluctuations. For instance, while Industrial Control Systems represents 79.3% of its portfolio, it saw a dramatic 83.7% decline in 2024, followed by a 128.6% rebound in 2025, and a 56.2% decline so far in 2026, indicating an inconsistent focus despite its high portfolio share. Similarly, Machine Learning & AI, accounting for 65.2% of the portfolio, experienced a 133.3% growth in 2025 after an 81.8% drop in 2024, suggesting a reactive rather than steadily growing investment in these key technologies.
