Hey people,
As some of you know, I just got accepted into the CET Skydeck incubator, with my company "Meerkat". As CEO it's my job of much of the business aspects of the daily runnings.This last week we recently incorporated in the state of Delaware as an S-Corp. We incorporated as an S-Corp for many reasons too long to explain in this blog. We are currently in the process of trademarking our logo, as well as filing patents. We hired a team of lawyers from WilmerHale to do much of this.
The funny thing is the lawyers actually forgot to mention trademarking/copyrights altogether until I brought it up! (what the heck are we paying them for?!) The lawyers were humored that they forgot to bring this up. So we are currently in the process of filing copyrights and trademarks. We still haven't covered the issue of trade secrets though, as we have been more lately been dealing with Intellectual Property documents related to my team of engineers. If you have any questions about anything I said, comment below! I'd be glad to help!
Congratulations on the Acceptance! I hope you have success with those lawyers and hopefully they are a bit brighter next time with things that need to be done.
ReplyDeleteThat is a great accomplishment for you! I wish you the best of luck in that process and I have heard of several companies incorporating in Delaware given their favorable rules and regulations.
