RESEARCH & DEVELOPMENT

It all starts in the laboratory.

​

R&D is at the core of most companies in the life science industry. External collaborations and relationships are often key in the conduct of successful R&D projects. As these projects may lead to both in-licensing and out-licensing opportunities, it is important to get the legal structure right from the beginning in order to ensure that all rights are protected and allocated to the right party .

​

Biolegal has experience of working closely with researchers and company management both in early and late phases of research and product development projects.

​

Below are some specific areas and examples of matters where we may assist:

 

  • collaboration arrangements between academic institutions and the industry,

  • engagement of external laboratories and other service providers for product development,

  • confidential disclosure agreements (CDA),

  • material transfer agreements (MTA),

  • research agreements,

  • license option agreements,

  • master services agreements (MSA),

  • employment and consulting agreements,

  • technology transfer agreements,

  • assignment/transfer of IP from inventors,

  • inventor royalty structures,

  • in-licensing agreements, etc.
