Canada - Joint Ventures/LicensingCanada - Joint Ventures/Licensing
The Canadian legal system imposes few restrictions on joint ventures or licensing. Some joint ventures require approval from the Government of Canada under the Investment Canada Act. For most new ventures, foreign investors need only notify the Canadian government of their investment. Foreign licensors do not require registration or public disclosure.
