This is my own company. I feel like i should be able to have my own side projects later, but will investors get squeamish if they see I have a non-standard agreement?
- nostrademons 16y agoI dunno; I'd imagine that it depends on the investor. One of my previous employers had the California clause ("except for inventions developed entirely on their own time on their own machines" blah blah) even though they weren't a California company, perhaps because their law firm was more familiar with that. One thing they probably will get squeamish with is if the founders have different IP agreements than the employees. They'll probably also wonder how committed you are to the company if you're already thinking about side projects...
