Intellectual property (IP) licensing and assigning are two ways companies can transfer Ownership or grant permission to use their IP assets to others.

IP licensing is like renting out a company’s intellectual property.

It involves granting someone else the right to use a company’s intellectual property assets for a specific period under certain conditions in exchange for a certain agreed license fee.

IP assignment is like selling an organization’s IP.

It involves permanently transferring IP rights to the assignee for a specified sum.

Both IP licensing and assigning agreements and contracts typically involve:

  • complex document creation
  • proper negotiations
  • experienced IP counsel support and guidance

The goal is to generate revenue, expand the reach and maximize the value of the business.
