In their latest Entrepreneur column, Manatt Digital and Technology Managing Director Kalon Gutierrez and Antitrust and Competition Partner David Reichenberg discussed how start-ups can prepare strategies and implement practices early on that can not only be critical to the business success of the startup, but also protect it from antitrust risk down the road.

  3. Executing a plan to overcome the market leader 

  4. Determining the social benefit associated with success
