ZHENGZHOU UNIVERSITY
ZHENGZHOU UNIVERSITY, despite being a university, shows a surprising focus on industrial materials, with Cement & Ceramics making up 10.5% of its portfolio and experiencing a 200.0% YoY growth in 2024, alongside a significant 100.0% YoY growth in Material & Chemical Analysis in 2025, indicating a strong and sustained interest in these areas. While there was an emerging focus on Medical Diagnostics & Surgery and Pharmaceutical Preparations in 2025, both categories have seen a 100.0% decline in patenting activity so far in 2026, suggesting a potential shift in priorities away from these medical fields.
