These agreements can be used when a new party joins the project. No variation to a model research collaboration agreement will be valid unless all the existing Parties agree to the variation in writing.
Use this particular agreement if you'd like each party to take an assignment of IP in the results that are relevant and appropriate to their core business, and the ability to then exploit those results. Note: Where more than 2 parties are collaborating, we have 4 model consortium agreements to choose from. This agreement was drafted for use with Innovate UK’s Collaborative R&D Programme. With a few changes, you can adapt it to your circumstances. Consortium agreements A,B,C and D cover many of the circumstances that may arise between academic, institutional and industrial partners when carrying out research. Nonetheless, you should negotiate with the other parties to achieve consensus and a signed agreement before work on the project begins.
This agreement can be used to record the terms of collaboration of a post-graduate studentship between a university and a student. It determines the funding and conduct of the studentship in addition to the specifics surrounding the project to be undertaken by the student.
Each of the 7 model research collaboration agreements from the Lambert Toolkit have a different approach on who can exploit the intellectual property from a project. In this particular agreement, agreement 2, the collaborator may negotiate further license to some or all of the Insitution IP rights.
Note: This collaboration agreement doesn't deal with joint ownership of intellectual property. For examples of joint ownership clauses, when 2 or more parties are collaborating, search Genie or Google for model consortium agreements
Use this agreement when an individual researcher undertakes to provide consultancy services to a Sponsor. The researcher assigns IP in the work they do as a consultant to the Sponsor in return for payments made by the Sponsor.
Note: In order to be assign those rights, the researcher must own them, which normally means they must not have developed them during the course of their employment by the university; if they have been developed in the course of his employment, those rights will usually belong to the university.

Each of the 7 model research collaboration agreements from the Lambert Toolkit have a different approach on who can exploit the intellectual property from a project. In this particular agreement, agreement 4A, each party has the right to exploit certain results created during the project and takes assignment of those results. The Institution has right to use for academic and research purposed, and the Collaborator for research purposes.

This sort of licence might be used where a Sponsor and University have reached an agreement under Lambert Model Agreement 2 where the Sponsor should be granted an exclusive licence to use identified IP in the results of research collaboration.
This sort of agreement might be used when a company has agreed to allow an academic, institution or industrial partner to use certain materials in connection with a research project.
This agreement in particular provides for the University owning the IP in the Results, but assigning the IP in any Improvements to the Company. It follows the scheme of Lambert Model Agreement 1, with the Company being granted a non-exclusive right to use the Results. (Unlike Lambert Model Agreement 1, the Results are defined in this form of Materials Transfer Agreement as the results arising from the use of the Materials (and not the results of the collaborative research project as a whole).
The University and the Company might, depending on the circumstances, follow the scheme of Lambert Model Agreement 2 or 3, giving the Company the opportunity to negotiate an exclusive licence or an assignment of the IP in specific Results, or Lambert Model Agreement 4 or 5, giving the Company ownership of the IP in the Results.
This sort of agreement might be used if a company has agreed to allow a academic, institutional, or industrial partner to use equipment in connection with a research project. This particular agreement is written as if a university will be taking delivery of the equipment to enable a principle investigator to use in relation to a research project.
This sort of assignment might be used, for example, where a Sponsor and an academic, institution or industrial partner have reached an agreement under Lambert Model Agreement 3, where the collaborator may negotiate for an assignment of some Institution IP.
This Assignment is based on the assumption that the Assignee will pay a one off sum for the assignment of the Patent, but the parties may agree revenue sharing or other payment terms.
These agreements can be used when a new party joins the project. No variation to a model research consortium agreement will be valid unless all the existing Parties agree to the variation in writing.
