A few years back, Lean Dog hosted a presentation by a guy from JumpStart talking about how to get funding for your startup at the leandog boat.  I thought it went well.

I'm thinking about organizing another thing like that, but this time, it would be by a friend of mine that's a intellectual property (IP) attorney.

She can explain stuff like what an NDA really is, how to make sure your current employer has no claim to your side project regardless of what you signed when you got hired, what is a trademark, how to partner with another firm but keep your ownership, what's a provisional patent, etc.

In short, demystify all this mumbo jumbo that keeps you from doing anything or talking about your kickass idea.

Would y'all be into this?  We could even do this like 1990s slashdot interviews, where we collect questions ahead of time.

I'm in - the 90's were great fun.

Sounds fun. Count me in too, even though I'm not a regular.

My first question would be the overall enforceability of non-compete agreements in Ohio: What's in there that matters, what's in there just to scare people?
