Questions

We are applying for a grant and they ask us to list this. In a grant application for funds they are asking us to provide a concise listed description of our venture’s: 1) Status of technology, 2) IP protection, 3) Ownership of IP, 4) Pre-existing obligations, 5) Expectation regarding future IP It's number 4 and 5 I'm confused by. I have so far written: 1) Our technology is built out and our platform is currently operating. 2) IP protection - our name is trademarked and copyright protected in the US and Canada. 3) Ownership of IP - we own all rights. We are the owner of all intellectual property, all improvements, written materials, logos, trademarks, trade names, copyright, patents, trade secret and moral rights, registered or unregistered. Is this enough? open to all suggestions. No idea what is meant by pre-existing obligations. If you know I'd be grateful for guidelines. Thank you!!

It refers to any pre-existing obligations your startup has to fulfill? Don't get confused with pre-existing IPs. Pre-Existing IP means pre-existing software, technology or other intellectual property, whether such pre-existing intellectual property is owned by Freelancer or a third party including, without limitation, code written by proprietary software companies or developers in the open source community.
