Research Summary

Patent licensing is the process by which a patent holder grants permission to another party to use, produce, or sell an invention covered by their patent for a specified period and under agreed-upon terms. In exchange for the rights to use the patented technology, the licensee typically pays royalties, lump sum payments, or a combination of both to the patent owner. Licensing can be exclusive, where the licensee is the only entity allowed to use the patent, or non-exclusive, where the patent holder can grant licenses to multiple parties. This arrangement allows patent owners to monetize their inventions while enabling licensees to incorporate patented technologies into their products or services without having to develop the technology themselves.
