Licensing innovative ideas is an excellent way of allowing such ideas to
become as useful as possible, while at the same time rewarding their
originators fairly, and giving them an incentive to develop even more
innovations.
Partnership
At DSM, we believe that licensing works at its best
when licensor and licensee work together. This partnership creates more value
from intellectual property, speeding up and improving the development of an
innovation significantly.
In this spirit of mutually beneficial partnership, DSM frequently grants other
companies licenses to use its own innovations. We ‘license out’ our
intellectual capital to others, either permanently or temporarily, to enable
the development of practical applications of a DSM process, technology or
patent in new fields or in new ways. DSM Licensing has several licensing
platforms that evolve through cooperation with our partners.
