Goodmans Technology Startup Guide
The Goodmans Technology Startup Guide provides an overview of the following primary legal issues that founders of technology startups should consider:
- Choosing the right business structure
- Protecting intellectual property
- Building a strong foundation
- Raising Capital
- Building the right relationships
- Interacting with the public
Ignoring legal issues can stifle the growth or even destroy the potential of promising high-tech companies. A business must address legal issues in a practical manner at the outset to build a strong foundation and create every opportunity for it to achieve its full potential.
