# Proposal for Syndicating IP-NFT and Co-Governing IP-NFT in IP HoldCo

### **About**

### **When to use it:**

* **Syndication Opportunities:** Use this template when your DAO has the opportunity to collaborate with a syndicate to fund a research project and co-govern resulting intellectual property rights.
* **Tokenization Plans:** Use it when there are plans to tokenize intellectual property and to distribute them among stakeholders based on specific criteria.
* **Governance Structures:** Use it to propose and formalize governance structures within a syndicate or IP HoldCo, especially when DAO utility token holders are involved in decision-making processes.
