Are Ideas Really Not Worth Defending? Should I Never Be Concerned With Someone Copying My Idea? - I Will Not Promote
I have been working with a cool idea as a technical founder. I have built a version 1, identified and talked to customers and will do alpha testing in a month and beta and possible launch in a couple of months. I have started looking for collaborators on the business and marketing side, mostly on an advisory role but potentially co-founder if things work out. These are the people who have a deep domain expertise as well as market reach. When I present to them they immediately get excited and want to talk further and know more.
Should I be concerned that as I am an outsider to the domain they will simply copy my work and steal my idea? I know that ideas are never defensible and execution matters way more, but I still feel nervous.
Edit: Thanks a lot for the clarity and support.
I dont know why I was worried. The technical complexity is not trivial that anyone can whip up with a weekend of vibe codding. The market is big enough for more players to exist despite being competetive. I should just focus on building the business.
