Commercial Licensing Agreement

"I need a Commercial Licensing Agreement for my software company to license our cloud-based accounting software to enterprise clients across Asia-Pacific, with implementation starting March 2025 and including provisions for technical support and source code escrow."

Document background
This Commercial Licensing Agreement template is designed for use in New Zealand business contexts where one party (licensor) wishes to grant another party (licensee) the right to use specific intellectual property, technology, or proprietary assets. The document is structured to comply with New Zealand's legal framework, including the Contract and Commercial Law Act 2017, Fair Trading Act 1986, and relevant intellectual property legislation. It is particularly useful for businesses engaging in technology transfer, software licensing, brand licensing, or any scenario requiring formal permission to use proprietary assets. The agreement includes comprehensive provisions for protecting intellectual property rights, establishing commercial terms, ensuring quality control, and defining the parameters of the licensed rights, while incorporating necessary safeguards and compliance measures specific to New Zealand's commercial environment.
