              What legal steps do you need to take as you spin your
              technology out of MIT?  How do you divide the equity
              between founders?  When should you incorporate and in what
              form?  What contracts do you need to have in place?  How
              do you ensure the right legal protection as you proceed?
              What minefields should you avoid? <br>
              <br>
              Come and discuss these topics with a panel of legal
              experts and MIT entrepreneurs who have spun-out their
              Deshpande Center projects into companies. Lunch will be
              served.<br>
