This document produces a mutual non-disclosure agreement (mutual NDA) which allows two parties to protect confidential information when they are negotiating a joint venture. If negotiations fail, the agreement will help to protect information from being made public. Care must be taken to ensure that the information which it is intended to keep confidential is marked as being confidential. Please note that in order for this agreement to be enforceable in the UK courts, at least one of the parties needs to be resident in the UK.
