Troublesome terms and conditions are no longer limited to industry and Federal contracts. While many of the challenging issues have been the same over time, troublesome terms are now routinely showing up in non-profit and foundation awards as well. Old issues like confidentiality, publication, intellectual property, licensing, liability, insurance, indemnification, and restrictions on research areas or limitations on other sources of funding join new issues like export control and anti-terrorist language. In addition, invoicing, financial reporting, and other payment-related terms are now often problematic. This workshop will explore these issues in non-profit, foundation and industry awards using real examples as case studies for the participants to apply the knowledge learned through an interactive discussion with the workshop faculty.
