The Proprietary Information And Inventions Agreement is a critical document used when engaging employees, contractors, or consultants who will have access to confidential information or may develop inventions during their work. This agreement, structured under Danish law, ensures protection of the company's intellectual property while complying with Danish regulations regarding employee rights to inventions. It becomes particularly important in innovative and research-intensive environments where new intellectual property is regularly created. The agreement covers key aspects such as confidentiality obligations, invention assignment procedures, and proper compensation requirements under Danish law. It should be implemented at the start of any employment or engagement where the individual will be involved in creative, technical, or innovative work.
