Scott Edward Walker
OCTOBER 19, 2020
Over the past six months, my firm has been engaged by a number of startups with significant intellectual property (“IP”) problems.

Set any vesting schedules and expiration dates on roughly similar terms, if for no other reason just so you can track all of them correctly.

I currently work in information security, and I help teach developers how to write better, more secure code.
