Legal Basics: General Counsel & Commercial Contracts

​Most founders don't know when they actually need a lawyer, and that gap can be costly. From navigating your first enterprise or government contract to understanding when legal risk is real and when it isn't, this is practical legal insight for early stage founders.

​This session will be led by Linsey Morrison, Head of Legal & Privacy, at Protege, followed by an open AMA where you can ask the questions you're not sure Google can answer.
