Erin Austin
Founder
Think Beyond IP
A graduate of Harvard Law School, Erin Austin is a strategic lawyer and consultant who uses her 25+ years of practicing law, including roles as COO and general counsel at large and small IP-driven companies, including Warner Brothers, Lionsgate (formerly known as Artisan), MGM, Teaching Strategies, and M3 USA Corp, to help founders of expertise-based firms build and protect saleable assets so that the business is ready to sell when the founder is ready to exit. Through her Hourly to Exit podcast and her consulting practice, Think Beyond IP, Erin guides businesses on the journey of transforming their unscalable income-generator into a saleable wealth building asset. Her special talent is helping businesses meet their growth goals through the creation of IP-based revenue streams. Erin is passionate about using her expertise to create an economy that works for everyone. In her spare time, Erin likes to clear brush on her farmette, search for the perfect gluten-free baguette (all leads are appreciated!) and work on her backhand.
