Inventions Retained Clause Samples

The "Inventions Retained" clause defines which inventions or intellectual property created by an employee or contractor prior to their engagement with a company will remain their own property and not be claimed by the company. Typically, this clause requires the individual to list or disclose any such pre-existing inventions, ensuring that these are clearly distinguished from inventions developed during their employment or contract period. Its core practical function is to prevent disputes over ownership of intellectual property by clearly separating prior inventions from those that may be subject to company claims.
