July 2010 – $595

The first step in proper intellectual property management is understanding the specific value of an intellectual property asset. While several existing treatises cover the valuation of trademarks, trade names and patents, very little has been published to assist in house counsel and IP attorneys faced with the challenge of valuing an organization’s copyright assets. Until now.
Intellectual property creators monetize their works through the transfer of their copyright intellectual property rights. The two most common copyright transfers are assignments and licenses. BVR’s new guide, Royalty Rates in Copyright Agreements, compiles, for the first time, a concise collection of agreements that illustrate how others have realized copyright value through licensing efforts. By looking at the licenses others have negotiated, readers can gain empirical insight into the relative values of these intellectual properties
Highlights of this one-of-a-kind guide include:
- Over 800 pages of real-world agreements
- Agreements cover all types of copyrights, including music, film, characters and personas, scientific and technological information, and much more.
- Concise, time-saving summaries of each agreement for quick and easy reference.
- Each full text agreement includes non-redacted variable or “running” royalty rates.
Your time is valuable. Don’t waste it hunting for hard-to-find answers to your legal questions. Rely on BVLaw™ and Business Valuation Resources LLC for all of your business valuation-related research needs.
