Research findings

Comparative structure study

The largest recorded reporting jurisdiction, Shandong, contains 11 records (25.0% of this 44-record cohort). The remaining cohort contains 33 records. The comparison concerns archive composition.

The recorded industry label Advanced materials accounts for 22.7% here (10/44), compared with 52.1% in the parent set (411/789), an absolute gap of 29.4 percentage points.

19/44 companies link to pages with existing source-supported excerpts (43.2% of the cohort). The other 25 records remain usable for archive composition, but do not support new operating case studies.

Concentration and cross-sectional structure

The full reporting jurisdiction distribution has 15 labels; the top 3 contain 23/44 records (52.3%).Other known labels contain 21 records.

For 44 records with known labels, the effective category count is 7.9, versus 15 actual labels. Definitions and scope are in the methodology.

The table shows ten labels; 5 others are included in the calculations above.

Transparent rule reminderRecordsCohort share
Contains registration-narrative wording36.8%

A rule hit prioritises review; it does not establish that the entire field is wrong. One record can trigger several rules.

1 records have a documented classification-consistency question. Original counts remain 44; excluding these records leaves 43 in the sensitivity calculation. The study does not reclassify firms or treat label conflicts as operating changes.

Intersection with 2026 local lists

14 of this cohort’s 44 records link through existing company-ID mappings to 2026 lists from all jurisdictions (31.8%). This intersection measures list linkage, not successful recognition or company growth.
