When it comes to startup success, protecting your innovation can be just as important as developing it. That’s why Whistle Technologies Inc., a cloud-hosted SaaS platform unifying business communications and social apps into one seamless interface, turned to ElevateIP for support in developing a strong intellectual property (IP) strategy.
Whistle’s platform is designed for flexibility and productivity. From emails and chat to video calls and social media, Whistle integrates all your business tools into a single intuitive dashboard—without the need for on-premise hardware, software, or support contracts.
But when it came time to reach out to investors and scale operations, Founder Anil Sedha knew that a solid IP foundation was critical.
“Communicating Whistle’s startup innovation without IP protection was restrictive as we reached out to investors and the wider industry,” said Sedha. “We’re very grateful for the ElevateIP program and North Forge for empowering us to stride ahead by ensuring IP protection and trademark strategy through an experienced law firm.”
With support from ElevateIP and the guidance of North Forge, Whistle Technologies successfully developed an IP strategy to protect their technology and brand. This not only gave them a competitive edge but also helped build investor confidence as they moved into growth mode.
