You’d be surprised how many startups fall apart not because of market failure or lack of funds, but because of intellectual property (IP) disputes between cofounders or even developers..

Here’s the truth…

 whatever you build…

your brand name, your logo, your software code, your content, your product designs are all your   intellectual property.

 And unless you’re intentional from day one, that IP could legally belong to individuals, not the company.

That’s why every serious founder must ensure that all IP created for the business belongs to the company, not to any cofounder (unless otherwise agreed ab initio).

This means founders, builders and handlers must legally assign IP rights to the company from the start.

This is not paranoia. it’s protection.

Because here’s what could happen when you don’t…

one day, the person who designed your app, logo, or product prototype leaves… and suddenly owns the rights to what your business runs on.

Now you’re in a messy legal battle over something you both thought was “ours” or didn’t see as a problem.

Protect your company’s most valuable intellectual assets right from day one.

Because in the end, your idea is only as valuable as your ownership of it.
