How to Make a Peanut Butter and Jelly Sandwich (or a Complex Research and Development Collaboration Agreement) Without Creating a Mess

Sometimes creating innovative products and services requires research and development using another company's technology.

This presentation offers practical advice on assigning ownership of arising intellectual property, licensing and protecting background technology, and incorporating third-party contributions.

The presenter draws from his personal experience with helping innovators and entrepreneurs in life sciences, agtech, cleantech and software, and also offers best practices that apply to technology collaborations more broadly.
