Top 100 Key Players companies in Extinction
by Highest Patent Value in the Japan in 2020

The Extinction top 100 is Discovery PatSnap’ annual ranking of the top 100 Highest Patent Value Extinction Key Players in the Japan. Discovery has identified the top key players, startups & unicorns, fast-growings, news entrants in 2020, ranking from differnt perspectives, including patent filing intensity, academic research capability, news media heat. The company list is generated from various data types.
In biology, extinction is the termination of a kind of organism or of a group of kinds (taxon), usually a species. The moment of extinction is generally considered to be the death of the last individual of the species, although the capacity to breed and recover may have been lost before this point. Because a species' potential range may be very large, determining this moment is difficult, and is usually done retrospectively. This difficulty leads to phenomena such as Lazarus taxa, where a species presumed extinct abruptly "reappears" (typically in the fossil record) after a period of apparent absence.
