Hi all,

Can I sell a software from the small company I founded to the large company I am an employee? What If I am also the buyer?

I am an employee with some purchasing power. I am also an entrepreneur who built a very niche software and sold it to some clients.
Can I buy my own software for the company I am an employee?

Thank you very much for your help!

Yes, you can if your company policy permits. BUT, you want to make sure your managers are aware of the relationship and give you written approval (even if it's an e-mail) before going through the steps to order the product from your personal company. You don't want to get caught in a conflict of interest that wasn't disclosed, because that's how you get fired in a hurry.
