Anyone hear of a patent attorney going to an investment bank, hedge fund, or venture capital firm?? Considering a change. Thought I could use my skills to help investors analyze and valuate companies.

One of my former colleagues did that. He was a partner though so maybe a few more years of experience would be good. Now he is a client.

What an interesting career path that would be.

Huh? Do you have any modeling or valuation experience?

This is helpful. Thank you.
