Cynthia Cole will speak on the panel “Specialty Areas in Private Acquisitions or Sales: International Aspects and Intellectual Property” at this conference sponsored by the Practising Law Institute (PLI).
Intellectual property is often a core value driver in private company transactions and can present significant legal and business risks if not properly addressed. The panel examines key IP issues that arise in acquisitions, sales, and carve out transactions, including conducting IP audits and diligence, addressing data privacy and compliance concerns, and negotiating IP related representations, warranties, covenants, and closing conditions. The discussion also covers IP considerations in division sales and spin offs, as well as closing and post closing issues that can affect long term value.
