In the fast-paced world of startups, innovation is everything, but owning and protecting it is what truly matters.
One of the biggest risks early-stage companies face is losing control over their intellectual property often to the very people they hire to build it. Whether it's a developer, a designer, or a contractor, without legal safeguards, your core product could walk away.
The two non-negotiables every founder must have:
Employment Agreements;
Non-Disclosure Agreements (NDAs).
Without these, you risk:
Competing products built from your own IP;
Loss of investor trust;
Legal deadlocks at the worst possible time.
Take proactive legal steps now, before success makes you vulnerable.
