Contribution Back Clause Samples

A Contribution Back clause requires that any improvements, modifications, or derivative works made by a licensee to licensed intellectual property are granted back to the original licensor, often under similar licensing terms. In practice, this means if a company uses open-source software and develops enhancements, those enhancements must be shared with the original creator or community. This clause ensures that the licensor and potentially the broader user community benefit from ongoing development, preventing proprietary lock-up of improvements and fostering collaborative innovation.
