This is Blue Calypso’s fourth patent and further strengthens the Company’s original patent claim set as a “Continuation In Part” (CIP) of US patent 7,664,516 along with US patent numbers 8,155,679 and 8,438,055.

“Mobile technologies are the ultimate enabler of relationships and value in people’s daily lives. Mobile has the potential to empower brands to create circumstantially relevant offers and incentives for their advocates and their friends based on data points such as their location, personal preferences and even the weather. The future of branding and demand generation will depend on a brand’s ability to enrich the lives of consumers in welcomed and relevant ways, versus interrupt and annoy.” said Andrew Levi, Blue Calypso’s Founder, Chief Technology Officer, and inventor of its patented platform.
Blue Calypso believes this issuance by the USPTO is compelling because it further substantiates the depth of Blue Calypso’s technology. “We are focused on our patent development as it relates to future products and services,” says Bill Ogle, CEO. “Future patents serve to strengthen our patent portfolio, help guard against infringement and protect our core business as we innovate.”
