Get ready to Negosh-iate some new licensing deals.

Negosh, the online licensing marketplace that launched as BIP last year, is carrying its rebrand further into the future with plans to revolutionize how licensors and licensees connect and strike deals. The company’s revamped digital marketplace, launched today, is designed to elevate user experience and broaden global reach while streamlining partnership and brand collaboration opportunities.

At the heart of the overhaul is a redesigned user interface and experience (UI/UX), promising a more intuitive and seamless browsing process. The sleek and modern design empowers users to effortlessly navigate the platform, explore brand opportunities, and negotiate deals with ease.

Bringing the world together has always been the goal for Negosh. With this new design update and Deal Facilitator flow, we aim to allow brands with an international presence to easily enter new markets. With our partnership with Infolens, we are so excited to expand Japanese IP opportunities both inbound and outbound."
