Report
"In the dynamic world of start-ups and scale-ups, intellectual property is often overlooked until it's too late. This book offers a refreshingly pragmatic and accessible guide to integrating IP into the strategic roadmap of growing ventures. What makes it particularly valuable is its direct relevance to founders and early-stage teams navigating the scale-up journey, investor conversations, and due diligence processes. By demystifying IP and anchoring it within the broader startup ecosystem-including funding, and acquisition readiness-it provides a critical toolset that too few early-stage entrepreneurs fully leverage. A must-read for anyone serious about building a secure and scalable business."
