If you believe that someone has infringed on your work online, there are a number of ways you can take action.
It can be a tempting prospect for start-ups to reveal details of an idea at a pitch event or in a crowdfunding campaign. If you decide to go down this path it is important to think about how this may affect your future IP registrations.
