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?

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.
