Emerging Companies & Entrepreneurs

To attract investors, raise capital and secure licensing agreements that take inventions from the bench to market, emerging companies and entrepreneurs must secure intellectual property protection for their innovations. Emerging companies and entrepreneurs trust MBHB to provide legal advice and counseling on IP matters associated with discoveries, product concepts, commercial launch and beyond.
