Legal Framework & Residency Terms

Welcome to the Textilixor innovation hub. By entering our laboratory spaces and participating in our residency programs at Doctors Drive, you're agreeing to a set of standards designed to protect both your intellectual property and our shared resources.

1. Laboratory Usage & Safety Protocols

We pride ourselves on providing world-class prototyping machinery. It's vital that all residents undergo meticulous safety training before operating high-tension looms or digital fabric printers. How else can we ensure the longevity of our specialist equipment? You'll be expected to maintain a 'clean-room' standard in all shared design workshops.

2. Intellectual Property (IP) Boundaries

What you create at Textilixor stays yours. We don't claim ownership over the disruptive textile technologies you develop within our walls. However, we do require a clear distinction between pre-existing IP and the breakthroughs achieved using our proprietary incubation systems. Documentation is key to our mutual success.

Our mentoring sessions are strictly confidential. We've built a culture of trust; let's keep it that way. Don't share the trade secrets of your fellow weavers—integrity is the thread that holds this community together.

3. Professional Conduct and Mentoring

Engagement with our business mentors is a core pillar of our support structure. While we're dedicated to your growth, we expect regular progress reports. We're not just a landlord; we're your partners in textile innovation. Failing to meet agreed-upon milestones may result in a review of your residence status.

4. Termination of Incubation

We reserve the right to conclude residency if safety protocols are ignored or if business conduct falls below the standard of professional excellence expected in the UK textile industry. Notice periods apply as per your individual contract. Your journey is important to us, and we strive for amicable transitions.
