Who will own the IP created by the employee during his secondment?
Normally, by law the employer will own any IP created by its employee. However, the sample secondment agreement contains provisions that make sure any IP created by the employee during the course of his secondment are owned by the host company. Any IP created before or after the secondment will continue to be owned by his employer.
