In the tech world, California, more than any other US state (to the best of my knowledge) fosters mobility of tech workers. State laws in California tend to favor employee movement and freedom to operate over non-competes and NDAs, as compared to other states. You want to make sure any agreement that requires Nevada laws also requires Nevada as the forum for any dispute.
I have not studied the laws of Nevada or California, these thoughts are based strictly on reputation of laws in California within a legal community.
Good luck,
Todd
