For some entrepreneurs, Procopio has been with them from the beginning with our LaunchPad incubator. Since 2012, a select group of high-technology entrepreneurs have grown their companies in Procopio’s Del Mar Heights office, alongside attorneys who understand their industries and the path to success for emerging growth companies. LaunchPad participants benefit from a complimentary legal start-up package, valuable office space and back-office support, and education on key topics such as valuation, funding, intellectual property strategy, employment issues, and pursuing a strong exit. Our attorneys provide ongoing legal support and assist with corporate structuring, patent protection, investor pitches, branding, and growth strategy.
