Licensing Agreement

A licensing agreement is a legal contract between two parties that permits one party (the "licensor") to grant certain rights or privileges to the other party (the "licensee"). This agreement typically involves intellectual property (IP) assets such as patents, trademarks, copyrights, or trade secrets, allowing the licensee to use these assets in specific ways. Licensing agreements are common in various industries, including technology, entertainment, pharmaceuticals, and consumer goods.
