How do I transfer my invention to my company?
If someone working for your company comes up with a new invention, you want to make sure your company owns it. To do this, you can have them sign a contract that says that the person agrees to give the company the invention. This way, even if they leave the company, the invention belongs to the company.
Why is it important that I transfer any inventions to my company?
It's important to transfer inventions to your company so that your company becomes the owner of the invention. If you don't, someone else might become the owner of the invention.
Who should sign?
If someone in your company invents something, they should sign a contract saying that the invention belongs to the company. This includes employees, contractors, and people from other companies that your company is cooperating with.
