How to manage the risks related to brands’ commercial development

How to reduce the risk of economic losses resulting from the improper use of the brand

Entrusting the commercial development of your brand to your licensees entails several risks, such as: 

  • failure to exploit the strategic opportunities existing on the market;
  • difficulties in harmonising and optimising the contractual framework underlying all the licensing management activities;
  • difficulties in verifying the constant respect of contractual agreements by the licensees and, in particular, potential underreporting in the turnover declared;
  • difficulties in the administrative and contractual management of the licences portfolio.
Managing and preventing such risks is crucial to make your brand stronger and more recognisable.

What is evoLicensing?

evoLicensing is the new web-based solution for organising, collecting, verifying and analysing data received from the licensees. evoLicensing is a user-friendly tool that optimises the royalty management process and offers a centralised archiving, reporting and Business Intelligence system.
