If you plan to build a patent portfolio and create early interest, be mindful of what you say publicly. If your technology is disclosed too soon, it is difficult to patent later on. Just one remark can put your IP in jeopardy.
A well-thought-out disclosure strategy ensures you maximize control of your IP. Think of it as layering secrecy and marketing: each piece of information you release serves a purpose. Without weakening your legal position.
Make sure your patent counsel is involved in your disclosure strategy. Don’t let a well-intentioned pitch or launch ruin your prospects.
Share your story and keep your key assets well-guarded.
