In all, 100 organizations around the world were identified and ranked, with Safran coming in 46th position. Read on for a closer look at this ranking.
Safran comes in 46th position in the worldwide ranking of the 100 most innovative companies unveiled by Clarivate on March 5, 2024. This international recognition follows Safran’s ranking as the number one patent filer in France in 2022 and 2023.

Our patent portfolio is a reflection of our innovation-driven differentiation strategy.
A ranking of excellence
For 13 years, Clarivate (which is specialized in the production of knowledge and intellectual property services) has been identifying the most innovative organizations throughout the world. This is the 11th year in a row that the Group has appeared on this list. For the first time, Clarivate has decided to create a ranking from this list, basing itself on four criteria: the number of patents published by the organization, their quality, their international scope and their influence.
This spot among the 50 most innovative companies in the world attests not only to the vitality of our teams, but also to the efficiency of our innovation strategy. This innovation strategy notably relies on significant and regular investment in R&D – in particular on solutions that contribute to sustainable development – and on the special attention paid to the formalization and protection of inventions by all stakeholders.
