Patent License Negotiation: Best Practices
  1. Preparing To Negotiate
    1. Effective negotiation begins with effective preparation.
      1. Assembling the right team means effective negotiation
        1. The Team
          1. A deal team who includes: a Business Development Executive, a Scientific or Technical Expert, a Decision Maker and a Licensing Attorney
            1. the team should evaluate and determine the marketing, technical, sales and services strengths of itself and the other party in the field of the patented technology
        2. Terms Sheet
          1. It is helpful for parties to exchange a term sheet prior to the initial negotiation meeting.
            1. including: the licensed product or process; licensed territory; license fee and royalty; technical information and training required to develop and manufacture, sell and service the licensed product, and who will be responsible for same; sales and service support; degree of exclusivity, and duration of the license.
          2. Drafting The Contract
            1. The party drafting the contract is always in the more favorable position
              1. By drafting the contract, a party is better able to evaluate any subsequent modifications or changes to the original draft and how such changes affect its primary goals
            2. In Licensing, the negotiation process is a key determinant of the future business relationship between stakeholders
              1. The Negotiation
                1. The terms of a licensing contract reflect the allocation of risk between the parties of the potential future development and marketability of the patented technology
                  1. the developmental stage of the technology and the scope of the license are risk factors that affect the amount of investment required to develop and market the technology and the competitiveness of the subsequent products or services.
                  2. Valuation approaches
                    1. Cost Method: cost of developing or purchasing the technology.
                      1. Market Method: the value is determined by evaluating the value assigned to comparable technology licensed recently,
                        1. Income Method: values technology by the total estimated annual returns
                        2. Developmental stage of invention
                          1. Patented inventions that are in the early stage of development often require substantial investment and development before a commercially viable product is produced
                          2. Exclusivity and field of Use
                            1. refers to whether the licensor has licensed the invention/technology to multiple licensees, whereas the field of use is the circumstances for which the licensor has granted the licensee permission to make, use and sell the patented technology
                              1. The licensor should aim to grant the narrowest field of use required by the licensee so that the licensor can retain the opportunity to exploit other potential licenses
