Rights Management

A Clearer Path Through Rights, Licensing and Approvals

Rights management is integrated into ARTiSTORY’s development process—not left until the collection is ready for production.

During the Masterpiece-to-Market™ Pilot, we assess the preliminary rights position, availability and approval requirements associated with the proposed cultural source, but brand do not need to commit to any IP licensing at the Pilot stage. If the brand proceeds to Full Product Development, ARTiSTORY coordinates the necessary clearances, commercial negotiations and product approvals.

What We Manage

Preliminary rights and availability assessment
Identification of relevant rights holders and cultural partners
Licensing proposals and commercial negotiations
Product categories, territories, channels and agreement terms
Contract and approval coordination
Product, packaging and marketing-content submissions
Attribution, provenance and usage requirements

Source-Neutral Recommendations

Not every project requires a licence. ARTiSTORY may recommend public-domain artworks when they offer the strongest creative and commercial proposition.

Licensing becomes relevant when the selected direction requires protected material, institutional co-branding, artist participation or access to exclusive cultural assets. Our priority is to recommend the source that best serves the product opportunity—not the one that generates the largest licensing fee.

Living Cultural Heritage Engagement

For projects involving living cultural heritage, ARTiSTORY can engage relevant artisans and tradition practitioners to contribute cultural knowledge, validate techniques and provenance, and support accurate representation throughout development.
