Our proprietary approach, perfected over several years of successful licensing program executions, enables us to identify the right opportunities, select the right partners and manage every aspect of the program, to ensure success for our clients."

Talking about Brand Licensing as an emerging sector in India, Mr. Pranav Anand, Managing Partner, LicenseWorks, added, "Corporate brand licensing is still a young concept in India. Till a few years ago, most of the licensing activity in India was confined to the likes of cartoon characters on kids' apparel, stationery etc., however that is changing now. We have invested a considerable amount of time educating the market about corporate brand licensing and its benefits. We are totally stoked about using the power of licensing, to scale up businesses for brand owners and licensees."

Worldwide, the licensing industry is estimated at over $270 Billion annually with prominent corporate brands such as General Motors, Electrolux, Caterpillar, Hershey's, Whirlpool, HEAD, Stanley and Black & Decker being quite active in this business. The US and Canada are the largest markets for licensed products and services; however, India, China and Brazil are regarded the fastest growing markets worldwide. India, in particular has witnessed an upsurge in brand licensing in the recent years, owing to the emergence of organised retail and E-commerce.
