In this week’s show, we discussed the often overlooked simple to complex steps in putting an idea into action– insulating your company and minimizing risk, fittingly called “building a moat around your startup!” We opened the floor up for audience members to ask questions and share ideas on protecting their early ventures from small mistakes that can have big consequences. Expert advice on implementing strategies early on that pay off in the long run.
