We understand at the Fund the careful balance that needs to be struck between protection of intellectual property (IP) and operating a lean start-up. It is vital that the start-up teams in our portfolio protect their IP as they
develop, with solid commercial guidance on what makes a feasible IP protection strategy whilst operating from tight cash positions.
