licensing deals
Rights usage contracts
Licensing deals are business agreements in which one party grants another the right to use intellectual property—such as patents, trademarks, software, or creative works—typically in exchange for fees or royalties.
These arrangements allow companies to monetize assets without selling them outright, or to access technology and content they didn't develop themselves.
