Strafford will be offering a webinar/teleconference entitled "Protecting IP Rights in Joint Development Agreements and Strategic Alliances -- Structuring JDAs to Apportion Contributed, Joint and Derivative IP; Planning for Involuntary Early Endings; and Avoiding Unintended Consequences" on February 20, 2014 from 1:00 to 2:30 pm (EST). Sharon Tasman Prysan of Health & Technology Law Group will provide guidance to counsel on the negotiation of and structuring joint development agreements (JDAs) to allocate IP ownership, and discuss the key provisions of the JDA to protect IP rights and avoid unintended consequences. The webinar will review the following questions:
• What considerations should counsel keep in mind when negotiating the JDA?
• What issues must be addressed by the JDA regarding IP ownership?
• What obligations will the parties have in protecting the other party's preexisting IP once the JDA is expired or terminated?
