Ownership of Background Clause Samples

Ownership of Background. All Background shall remain the property of the Party who introduces the Background (the “Introducing Party”) or its licensors.

Ownership of Background. Background means all technical and/or scientific information and knowledge, and all intellectual property rights arising therefrom, necessary for the execution of the Project or the exploitation of the Results, belonging to or held by a Party prior to the effective date of the Contract or obtained independently of the execution of the Project and over which it holds rights of use. Each Party shall retain ownership of its Background listed in Appendix 3 of the Contract. The Parties shall also indicate therein any restrictions on the use of such Background. Any improvement in the characteristics or properties of Background dependent on it, i.e. that cannot be implemented without using such Background, obtained during the execution of the Project between the Parties and relating to the Project, hereinafter "Improvement", shall be the property of the Party that owns the Background concerned.

Ownership of Background. Intellectual Property shall not be affected by this Agreement. Each party shall be entitled to own all Background Intellectual Property obtained in the course of such party’s performance of this Agreement for others at any time in the future. Neither party shall have any obligation to limit or restrict the job duties of its personnel or to pay royalties for any work resulting from such party’s Background Intellectual Property.

Ownership of Background. 9.1.1 The Members intend to cooperate at ‘Integration of Networks’ level with respect to the management of all matters relating to the protection and exploitation of all Knowledge arising from the ESONET-Vi Network and of the intellectual property rights pertaining to such Knowledge, with the view to promote innovation. The activities of the Legal Entity are limited to the provision of technical services and administration. As ESONET-Vi is a network framework and does not conduct research itself, it is not expected that Intellectual Property will be developed directly from its activities or operation, rather it is expected to promote the creation of Intellectual Property by researchers of its Members. However, in the event that an invention would result from the activities or the operation of ESONET-Vi consortium that may be protected and commercialized, the Members agree that such an invention shall be the property of the entity(ies) carrying out the work generating that invention. The Members shall then by mutual agreement decide on a case-by-case basis on the best course of action.
