Side Hustle to Startup: Building While You’re Still Employed

This workshop is built for builders balancing a paycheck and a passion project. If you’re growing a business alongside your 9–5, we’ll walk through the legal and strategic essentials you need to protect what you’re building and set it up for real growth without jeopardizing your current role.

You'll learn:

• What your employment agreement really says about side projects
• Why contracts matter (even if you’re working with friends)
• IP ownership 101: make sure your employer doesn't accidentally own your business
• Steps to protect your brand, your time, and your peace of mind

Whether you’re aiming for supplemental income, long-term scalability, or the option to go all in later, you’ll leave with clarity, structure, and a business foundation that works for where you are now and where you’re headed!
