What is Trademark Licensing?
Trademark licensing is the process wherein a registered owner of a trademark authorizes a third party to use the mark in the course of trade without transferring the ownership of the mark.
The licensing allows the registered owner to let others use the mark while retaining ownership. The owner can put limitations on the use through the licensing agreement, such as restricting use to particular goods or services.
