The practice of licensing is a very specialized form of trade involving the exploitation of intellectual property. It is made up of essentially of three basic components:
- Legal: The legal aspect of licensing focuses on the forms and protections of intellectual property (IP) rights, contractual vehicles by which such rights can be conveyed and the applicability of governing law to the behaviors and misbehaviors of individuals and legal entities.
- Financial: The financial perspective of licensing leads to an analysis of the value of IP rights as they m ay be packaged in various forms and with other assets so they may be subjects of commercial transactions, i.e. licenses.
- Business: From the perspective of the business owner or manager, licensi ng and IP are viewed as mechanisms by which investments made can be realized or the investments of others acquired, all as part of the competitive context of successfully satisfying the needs of its customers, present and future.
