Helio Corporation Appoints Vikas Parti as Independent Director and Chairman of Intellectual Property Helio Corporation announced the appointment of Vikas “Vik” Parti to its Board of Directors as an independent director and Chairman of Intellectual Property. Mr. Parti is a Registered Patent Attorney with extensive experience in patent preparation, prosecution, and litigation-ready claim analysis before the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, where he has been registered to practice since 2009. He holds a Juris Doctor from Western Michigan University Cooley Law School and a Bachelor of Science in Computer Science from Webster University. In his new role, Mr. Parti will help Helio operationalize an intellectual property strategy that captures engineering breakthroughs as they occur, building a robust patent portfolio aligned with the Company’s technical roadmap. Helio is also focused on capitalizing on the substantial R&D investment it has already made by systematically translating core technical progress into protectable IP assets that support long-term partnerships and commercialization. To this end, the Company is developing an IP roadmap that runs in parallel with its product roadmap, ensuring that its patent estate grows in lockstep with engineering milestones and platform evolution. This approach strengthens differentiation, supports freedom to operate, and expands partnership and licensing opportunities as the space economy scales. Mr. Parti will also lead a board-level initiative to establish a defensive “picket fence” of patents and proprietary claims designed to support licensing opportunities, strategic partnerships, and sustainable revenue streams. Helio views this effort as a cornerstone of its strategy to convert deep technical expertise into lasting economic value for shareholders. お知らせ • Jan 20
