In this episode, we talk with Steven Colby, an intellectual property attorney at Rimon Law, and owner of more than 15 patents. Steven has a PhD in Analytical Chemistry and started his career as an engineer building instruments to test chemicals before jumping to the law track.

During his early engineering and teaching career, he acquired his patent experience before going all in with a multi-decade career in IP law.

Steven describes himself as a “patent prosecutor” who writes the technical documentation necessary to decipher value, originality, and successfully file a patent. He primarily works with early startups helping them create value in intellectual property, and helps companies build valuations by securing their “crown jewels.”

Listen in as Steven walks through the patent ecosystem, and how strong IP can catapult a company into the big leagues. He also reviews the flip side, and covers some of the common mistakes that negatively impact a firm’s ability to achieve high valuations, market differentiation, and great exits.
