Introduction
Before any exchange of agreement templates begins, it is essential that a ‘Heads of Agreement’ is
discussed and that agreement is reached on each of the important aspects of the planned interaction,
be it a research collaboration, a licence agreement, a licence option agreement, patent exploitation
agreement, or other. The following section provides a template for a licence agreement, with some
prompters on the key elements that should be discussed between the parties to establish the main
points of the agreement.
The Heads of Agreement typically are a set of bullet point headings, under which the parties are
expected to discuss and complete in their own words (or brief bullet points) the decisions they have
reached on each item.

OBJETIVO GENERAL
The process of negotiation is frequently informal and, typically, is not completed in a single
meeting of the parties around the table. More usually, the parties meet several times to
discuss the technology. When they decide to enter into a formal licence arrangement,
specific individuals from the team with a combination of technical and legal expertise are
introduced on both sides to complete the deal and to sign a formal agreement.

Conclusions
- Through the development of the document, Head of agreement, it was possible to develop and understand the
main concepts necessary to be able to reach a negotiation agreement at the time of negotiating the technology
with the partners, this will allow us to become competitive in the business world .
- As future engineers we are able to understand the importance of intellectual property and we learned the
necessary tools to negotiate our innovation, whether they are patents, registered trademarks, copyrights, etc.
