Step 15 of 30 · Launch

Registration and protection

What it is

Securing the registrations, accounts, intellectual property, trademarks, and operational permissions needed to trade safely.

Why it matters

The venture should own and protect its core assets before public exposure or meaningful revenue attracts imitators.

What Flir develops

Jurisdiction-specific registration, banking, tax, IP, and brand-protection checklist

Target objective

Ensure the venture can transact legally and its key assets are defensible.

A software venture protects its name and code ownership, opens a company account, and completes required registrations before beta.

Monitoring brief

Signals Flir should keep checking as this part of the plan evolves.

  • Trademark applications and copycats
  • Filing deadlines and status changes
  • New registration obligations
