Enterprises of all sizes are now comfortable with SaaS and cloud solutions.  However, SaaS and cloud deals raise many complex legal issues that need to be thoroughly negotiated and documented in agreements.  In this session, lawyer, author and frequent speaker on negotiating cloud and SaaS deals Mark Grossman and Associate General Counsel for JM Family Enterprises will give you the benefit of what they have learned in their combined 50 plus years as tech deal negotiators. In this session, they will speak to the unique customs, usages, and norms of SaaS and cloud deals, and the particular provisions that are critical to agreements in this area.  The discussion will include issues common to SaaS agreements including intellectual property, warranties, and limitations of liability.

Points to be covered include the following:

  • Key provisions that should be included in every cloud and SaaS contract
  • How limitation of liability clauses can emasculate cloud and SaaS agreements
  • How do protect your data in the cloud
  • How intellectual property provisions in SaaS agreements can be a trap for the unwary
  • Strategies to keep SaaS agreements out of court
  • Negotiating cloud and SaaS agreements that communicate the deal in clear, simple and unambiguous terms, reducing risk to the enterprise
