Here is how to prevent it👇 Nearly 10% of co-founders split within the first year, and 45% within four years. Without safeguards, these breakups can severely impact a company’s survival and funding prospects. In one case, a disagreement led a departing co-founder to publish the startup’s core business information on a personal blog, potentially depreciating—or even nullifying—the startup’s value. Fortunately, the company had secured its IP rights early on, so a cease-and-desist letter was enough to remove the posts and prevent further leaks. To protect company IP from day one, each founder should sign: • IP Assignment Agreement – Assigns any IP created by the founder before joining or incorporating the company (e.g., ideas or designs developed during brainstorming). • Confidentiality and IP Assignment Agreement – Protects future IP created during the founder’s work for the company, ensuring it remains under company control. #foundertips #startupip #legalprotection #startuplaw #founderdisputes #stattiplawyer #startupfounder #founderbreakup 0:06
