How to Use NDAs in IP Deals - Best Practice for Negotiation & Drafting

Introduction

While Non-Disclosure Agreements (‘NDAs’) are familiar territory for most legal practitioners, and AI tools can now generate standard confidentiality clauses, the real challenge lies in the practical application.

How do you adapt standard approaches when the deal involves cutting-edge technology?

What do you do when your client's business model doesn't fit conventional NDA structures?

When do you push back on ‘standard’ terms, and when do you accept them?

This new virtual classroom seminar focuses on the practical judgment calls and real-world scenarios that cannot be easily googled or AI-generated.

You will gain insights into the key considerations that distinguish routine confidentiality practice from the strategic approach that complex IP transactions demand, along with practical guidance on common negotiation points and market intelligence on current trends.

What You Will Learn

This live and interactive course will cover the following:

• When standard NDA templates create dangerous gaps in IP protection
• Why most confidentiality breaches happen despite ‘watertight’ agreements
• The negotiation points that separate experienced from novice practitioners
• What makes NDAs enforceable in practice (not just in theory)?
