Budget 2017 is out! In his recent Budget speech, Finance Minister Heng Swee Keat announced numerous initiatives to assist SMEs with adopting digital technologies and accessing intellectual property (IP) rights. Through these initiatives, companies may now obtain the support they need in order to tap on the digital economy and improve productivity.

However, when acquiring and using digital technologies and IP rights, there are various legal and commercial issues that companies have to be aware of. For example, what are the key legal issues to consider when dealing with technology vendors? What are the important contracts and documents that you should have? Should you bargain or negotiate terms with a vendor? Is it safe to agree to everything that a vendor wants?

Join our Dentons Rodyk Intellectual Property & Technology Senior Partners Gilbert Leong, Woon-Chooi YEW and their colleagues, as they address the above topics and help you to navigate the complexities that may lie ahead.
