Description

Are you confident that your license and royalty agreements are in compliance? It’s been found that 75% - 85% of licensees have errors in their royalty reporting and 89% of license agreements are underpaid. It is important that your revenue calculations are regularly examined to ensure consistency with your agreements and to check for completeness and accuracy. A license and royalty audit can provide that assurance. Join us for our webinar to discuss the benefits and process of a license, royalty, and franchise audit.
