The Framework Collaboration Agreement serves as a master agreement for organizations seeking to establish long-term collaborative relationships under Swiss law. This document type is particularly valuable when parties anticipate multiple joint projects or ongoing cooperation but want to maintain flexibility in specific implementations. It provides the legal and operational framework for collaboration while allowing individual projects to be governed by separate project-specific agreements. The agreement incorporates key Swiss legal requirements and commercial practices, making it suitable for both domestic and international collaborations. Typically used by companies engaging in strategic partnerships, joint research and development, or shared service arrangements, the Framework Collaboration Agreement addresses essential elements such as governance structure, resource allocation, intellectual property rights, and risk distribution, while remaining adaptable to evolving business needs.
