Corporate Governance and Incorporation

Definition

A licensing agreement is a legal contract or arrangement between a licensor (the owner of intellectual property) and a licensee (the authorized user) granting permission to use, produce, distribute, or commercialize intellectual property rights, such as patents, trademarks, copyrights, or trade secrets, in exchange for royalties, fees, or other considerations. Licensing agreements enable companies to leverage their intellectual assets, expand market reach, and generate revenue without manufacturing or marketing products or services themselves.
