Today I'll be answering a question from Virginie who is working on the second version of her Web platform. Her question is: Is it possible to fully own the source code developed by a provider? Asking someone to develop an application without having access to the source code is like building a house on a land that does not belong to you yet. I’ve seen those kinds of projects whose owners run into conflict with providers just because of this exact situation. Here are my recommendations to avoid making this critical startup mistake.
