Document background
The Collaboration Framework Agreement is designed for organizations seeking to establish long-term collaborative relationships under New Zealand law. This document is particularly valuable when parties intend to undertake multiple joint projects or initiatives over time, requiring a stable legal foundation that can accommodate various forms of cooperation. It addresses key aspects such as governance structures, resource allocation, intellectual property rights, and risk management, while ensuring compliance with New Zealand's legal framework, including the Contract and Commercial Law Act 2017 and competition laws. The agreement is structured to provide both certainty in fundamental terms and flexibility for specific project arrangements, making it ideal for complex, ongoing business relationships that may evolve over time.
