  • 004: Importance of Monetizing Intellectual Property Assets of a Portfolio Company
    May 27 2022

    In today’s Upside episode, we explore developing and monetizing the intellectual property assets of a portfolio company.

    How does a new company go about developing a patent portfolio, and why spend the time and effort doing it when your founders are probably hyper-focused on just getting a business up and running? What if they do everything right and the business still fails? What good are those patent assets then? Can you still monetize them? If so, how do you do it?

    Today, on Upside with Jim Day and Erik Olson.

    Hosted by Greg LeSaint and Erica Villanueva.

  • 002: Litigation Trends In the Private Equity and Venture Capital Space
    May 12 2022

    In today’s Upside episode, we explore fiduciary duty in the venture capital context. Can owners of a venture capital management company act in ways that explicitly disadvantage their business partners? Can they agree to waive any fiduciary duties to each other? Today on the Upside, we’ve got backstabbing, trickery, self-dealing, and maybe a shot at justice—join us. 

    Hosted by Cynthia Castillo and Alex Reese.
