    Startups를 위한 Intellectual Property 전문가

    IP strategy is one of the highest-leverage early decisions a startup can make — and one of the most consistently neglected. The cost of getting it wrong compounds: missing deadlines, incomplete IP assignment from contractors, or launching without a trademark search become major liabilities when investors or acquirers run due diligence.

    Startups의 주요 과제

    • Ensuring the company unambiguously owns all IP created by founders, employees, and contractors
    • Filing 83(b) elections and IP assignment agreements before the deadlines expire
    • Conducting trademark availability searches before investing in brand development
    • Deciding what to patent vs. maintain as trade secret vs. publish defensively
    • Scaling IP hygiene as the team grows and more contributors are involved
