Show Notes

In this segment of “IP in the News” on Passage to Profit Show, we dive into the dramatic story of a disgruntled Google engineer who turned his workplace frustrations into a legal firestorm by leaking trade secrets online. From the fine line between patents and trade secrets to the rights of employees versus employers, we unpack the chaos that unfolds when workplace tension boils over. Join us for insights, legal perspectives, and lessons on handling intellectual property disputes—and learn why sometimes it’s better to leave quietly than throw secrets out the window.

 

Richard Gearhart and Elizabeth Gearhart, co-hosts of Passage to Profit Show have this discussion with cardiologist Dr. Joe Puma from Sorin Medical and Diane Yoo from Fenix Global.
