CHICAGO, June 17, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- The Wisory® today announced a strategic partnership with IU Ventures to support the evaluation of investment opportunities from Indiana University-affiliated companies through The Wisory's IntelliQ™ platform. 

The partnership is part of The Wisory's University Program, designed to support the nation's leading university-affiliated venture capital, angel investment, and commercial funds. The Wisory provides institutions access to IntelliQ-U, a customized extension of their proprietary IntelliQ platform, to identify, evaluate, and support high-potential companies emerging from university innovation ecosystems.

IU Ventures will utilize IntelliQ-U to assess companies seeking investment, providing insights into business readiness, growth potential, and key execution factors.

IntelliQ-U helps investors evaluate opportunities while providing founders meaningful insights to strengthen their business. We are very fortunate to have Jason Whitney leading our efforts, one of the most respected and experienced leaders in the university investment space."

IntelliQ-U supports how venture and university funds operate with lean teams responsible for evaluating opportunities across industries, stages, and founders. IntelliQ-U provides diligence frameworks so investment professionals have a consistent, repeatable process to assess companies and industries.
