INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY · COMMERCIAL CLARITY

Copyright and content valuations.

Prepare a financial brief for content libraries, creative works and associated rights.

Define the asset. Understand the evidence. Agree the right scope.

Kishen Patel, BFP ACAICAEW Chartered Accountant

Map the works and rights

Describe the content library or individual works in scope and the rights proposed for use or transfer. Agreements may distinguish media, territory, duration and exclusivity. A legal adviser should confirm the rights position where required.

Organise the commercial information

Compile available revenue statements, licensing contracts and costs associated with maintaining or exploiting the content. Explain how the records identify each work or group of works. Highlight where figures cannot be separated without an allocation or assumption.

Clarify the intended use

A potential sale and a licensing discussion ask different questions. We begin by agreeing the purpose and information available, then determine whether the financial work can be scoped appropriately. No catalogue value is implied by the number of works alone.

BEFORE WE BEGIN

Your next-step
questions.
Answered.

What will the first discussion establish?+

The asset, purpose, intended users, relevant date, information available and specialist input needed. We then confirm suitability and propose a scope where appropriate.

What should I send initially?+

A short non-confidential description is enough. Do not submit source code, unpublished inventions, contracts or sensitive financial records through the enquiry form.
