Overview: Technology licensing is a contractual arrangement in which the licenser's patents, trademarks, service marks, copyrights, or know-how may be sold or otherwise made available to a licensee for compensation negotiated in advance between the parties. A technology licensing agreement usually enables a firm to enter a foreign market quickly, yet it poses fewer financial and legal risks than owning and operating a foreign manufacturing facility or participating in an overseas joint venture. It explains the ownership structure and joint ventures; there are a number of business and legal reasons why unassisted exporting may not be the best export strategy for a company. In such cases, the firm wishes to consider a joint venture with a firm in the host country. International joint ventures are used in a wide variety of manufacturing, mining, and service industries and are frequently undertaken in conjunction with technology licensing by the firm to the joint venture.
