Back-to-Basics Lessons from Facebook’s Former Counsel

Facebook shares legal and contract management advice, such as the importance of keeping your NDA's.

Mark Howitson, former Deputy General Counsel of Facebook, knows a little about protecting a company’s IP. He was in the middle of the Facebook litigation made famous in the movie The Social Network. He shared his advice and addressed the reality behind the movie in an interview with Sylwia Gorajek of Valley Talks.

One of his main points is to make sure to keep your NDAs. Talk about back-to-basics! You can’t enforce a contract that you can’t produce.

This is where ContractSafe comes in. It’s an easy and affordable way to keep all your contracts and other important legal documents in one safe place.
