Document background
The Board of Advisor Agreement is essential for companies operating under Swiss law who seek to formally engage external experts in an advisory capacity. This document is typically used when a company wishes to benefit from specialized expertise without adding members to its statutory board of directors. The agreement complies with Swiss corporate law and the Swiss Code of Obligations, providing a framework for the advisor's involvement while protecting both parties' interests. It addresses key aspects such as scope of services, compensation, confidentiality, and intellectual property rights, while maintaining the distinction between advisory and statutory board roles. The document is particularly relevant for growing companies, those entering new markets, or organizations requiring specific industry expertise or strategic guidance.
