How did you manage the legal issues surrounding IP ownership while working at a full time job? Were your employers aware of your startup?


Not all employers care about all IP ownership. They just want stuff done on their time and stuff relevant to their business to be theirs.

I also built a project that became a startup while I was at a wallst bank. Although it didn't become a company till after I left.
