Intellectual property licensing is a legal arrangement where the owner of intellectual property grants permission to another party to use the asset under specific conditions. This allows the licensee to utilize patents, trademarks, copyrights, or trade secrets without transferring ownership.
Licensing agreements specify the scope, duration, and limitations on the use of intellectual property to protect the interests of the owner while enabling commercial benefits for both parties.
A licensing agreement provides legal clarity and protection, detailing rights and mutual obligations. It serves to prevent misunderstandings and disputes concerning the use of intellectual property.
