Every Little Legal Thing That App and Software Developers Need to Know: A Seminar for Independent Developers and Small Businesses

Presented by Joel Corcoran, Of Counsel, Rational Unicorn Legal Services LLC

Software development isn’t just a hot market for economic growth and job creation, it’s also a field of rapidly developing law -- in the U.S. and around the world. And based on his experience, Joel knows that trying to pass off legal problems as “it’s not a bug, it’s a feature” rarely works. In this seminar, we will cover all the core legal issues that can arise in any software development business: choice of business entity and product ownership; protecting your code and software products (including Open Source); borrowing code versus copyright infringement; software patents; licensing frameworks; and when to watch out for export controls (even on the Internet).

The More You Glow seminar series shines light on legal topics and other professional services. Join us for some enlightening events!
