Yes is a real balancing act between protecting an idea and just getting on with the development (which will almost always involve the sharing of the idea)

Simple non-disclosure agreements (used wisely) can act as a bit of a deterrent but really unless you are willing to lawyer up everything is a bit of a bluff.

*NDA’s are very rarely signed by our team as while we have strict confidentiality rules in place for information we receive, more often than not some developers have an idea that they think is totally unique – but often its not quite as unique as they may think and is, in fact, being worked on independently elsewhere in the industry. The volume of innovation and creativity that is swirling around the industry is pretty fantastic 🙂
