Crafting and Negotiating IP Provisions in Commercial Agreements  (60 MINUTES)
Join experienced transactional counsel to discuss and learn the nuances of drafting and negotiating IP provisions across a variety of commercial contexts.

Areas of focus will include IP representations and warranties, indemnification, confidentiality and the interplay between the provisions; where and how data and analytics fit into the IP conversation; IP due diligence; risk allocation and mitigation and the business effects of enforcing IP provision in commercial and M&A transactions.
