    MaysonL, I believe the US position is to prevent patent violation in underdeveloped economies regardless of where the research was done or who owns the patent - this makes sense fr…

    I'm 30 and am in an identical decision - except, a few weeks ago, I made the decision to resign from a well paid job at a startup. A close friend of mine from university are going …
