The Joint Project Agreement is a crucial legal instrument used when two or more parties wish to collaborate on a specific project while maintaining their separate legal identities. This document is particularly relevant in Switzerland, where inter-company collaborations are common in various sectors, from technology to manufacturing. The agreement must comply with Swiss law, particularly the Swiss Code of Obligations, and typically includes comprehensive provisions for project governance, resource sharing, intellectual property rights, and risk allocation. It is distinct from a joint venture agreement as it focuses on a specific project rather than creating a new business entity. The document is especially valuable for complex collaborations requiring clear structure and risk management, such as research and development projects, technology partnerships, or multi-party construction projects. The Joint Project Agreement's flexibility allows it to be customized for various sectors while maintaining the legal certainty required under Swiss law.
