What's a business plan non-disclosure agreement?

A business plan non-disclosure agreement, also known as a confidentiality agreement or an NDA, is designed to build trust in your business relationships. By learning from the beginning what type of information is confidential, you can safely explore all private aspects of your business venture. Avoid accidental leaks by clarifying that your business plan is confidential before sharing. This prevents consultants from becoming your competitors.
