Ownership of Background Technology Clause Samples
The "Ownership of Background Technology" clause establishes that each party retains ownership of any technology, inventions, or intellectual property they developed or acquired prior to entering the agreement. In practice, this means that any pre-existing software, patents, or proprietary processes brought into a project by a party remain their exclusive property, regardless of subsequent collaboration. This clause is essential for preventing disputes over pre-existing assets and ensuring that only new, jointly developed technology is subject to shared ownership or licensing terms.
