WebSaver Case Solution
Analyzes several legal problems confronted by Samantha Fine, the CEO of Next Step, a software concern that's focused on the Internet and planning an initial public offering. Describes Fine's computer-related experience before founding Next Measure and discusses the activities related to transforming WebSaver from an unproven notion for a software product to being considered among the successful Web-based software goods within the industry. This case supplies a simple description of the sources of the Web and the Internet, the Web search engine marketplace, and marketing online. Although the issue of this case is a business whose main product is an advanced software in a medium that is relatively new and quickly changing, the legal lessons that can be learned from this case are relevant to a broad variety of entrepreneurial enterprises. Legal problems comprise of both the national and international security of intellectual property, effect of tasks related to intervention as well as competition free clauses and non-disclosure agreements, equity rights of a creator who leaves, and accounting and tax effects of a last minute issuance of stock that is low-priced.
