Licensing

Licensing is a regulatory and legal mechanism within intellectual property and administrative law by which a governing authority or rights holder grants a qualified entity or individual limited permission to engage in otherwise restricted activities—such as the use, commercialization, or transfer of protected rights, substances, technologies, or services—under specific terms and conditions that ensure compliance with established policy, safety, ethical, or economic standards.
