Technology licensing is crucial to business in the high tech market. It is therefore a key focus of our practice and we have extensive experience working with companies in all aspects of technology licensing. Our deep technology expertise empowers us to understand and structure appropriate licensing arrangements for the specific technology needs of each individual industry area applicable to our clients.

Intellectual Property is one of the most critical assets of a technology company and we ensure that we protect intellectual property assets of technology companies when licensing their technology to others. We also advise, assist, and structure arrangements for businesses to obtain licenses to the technology of others for operational purposes, as part of cross-licensing arrangements, in re-licensing or sublicensing, or to incorporate licensed works in their own products.

Our Technology Licensing Practice is closely integrated with our Intellectual Property, Merger & Acquisition, and Business Formation Practice Areas. We have expertise in complex licensing agreements involving patents, trademarks, and copyrights; mergers, acquisitions, and joint venture agreements involving technology licenses or transfers; license agreements with universities, government agencies, and other large institutions; and license arrangements involving new and evolving forms of web-based content.
