What is an NDA?

A non-disclosure agreement (NDA) is a legal contract between two parties or more that outlines confidential material and prevents sensitive material from being shared with others. The NDA is a legally binding contract which helps to protect your idea or any information surrounding your idea giving you the freedom to disclose and share information in confidence with others.

It is important to never assume that all conversations with advisors are automatically confidential. If you’re in any doubt whatsoever, its always best to have an NDA to hand. You may encounter situations or circumstances where an NDA is necessary to help you develop your product idea further. There may be times when you may have to approach a bank for a loan, pitch your idea to investors to receive funding or speak with manufacturers to find out the best way to produce your product.
