Transactional IP
In an ever-changing commercial market, capturing value from intellectual capital and knowledge-based assets has become increasingly important. Our IP advisers across a network of offices regularly work with clients to asses the true value of their IP portfolio and assets, in addition to identifying any third party rights that have a bearing on their position.
Our lawyers provide strategic advice to clients from a broad range of sectors right from the initial stages of corporate transactions, putting in place vital non-disclosure agreements. Working in partnership with our corporate colleagues during corporate transactions, we review ownership of the IP portfolios involved on behalf of our clients to ensure that ownership these important yet intangible assets are transferred as smoothly as any physical property.
We also provide comprehensive advice on the exploitation of IP rights and negotiate and prepare a range of contracts relating to the sale, purchase and licensing arrangements for certain IP assets, as well as exploitation agreements and joint venture agreements.
Main services in this area include:
- advising on the IP and technology aspects of corporate transactions such as M&A, joint ventures and investment transactions
- due diligence
- reviewing ownership and value of IP portfolios
- drafting, review and negotiation of IP sale, purchase and licensing agreements, exploitation agreements and joint venture agreements
