Product Description
Product Description
Intellectual property rights are often a company’s most valuable assets yet are sometimes overlooked in contracts where IP is not the focus. This can leave companies vulnerable to inadvertent IP loss or liability. Common examples include employment agreements and M&A agreements. And even in contracts where IP is the focus—such as patent assignments and license agreements—small words can make a big difference if a dispute arises in the future.
In this new online seminar, we explain how to identify whether IP rights may be implicated in a variety of contracts, common terms and clauses to understand and negotiate, and traps to watch out for depending on which side you represent. Hear a well-rounded discussion of IP in contracts from various practice perspectives. Although designed for practitioners new to these areas, this program also provides enough depth for those with some experience.
