A licensing agreement is a legal contract between two parties, known as the licensor and the licensee. In a typical licensing agreement, the licensor grants the licensee the right to produce and sell goods, apply a brand name or trademark, or use patented technology owned by the licensor. In exchange, the licensee usually submits to a series of conditions regarding the use of the licensor's property. The license we can provide can be exclusive, non-exclusive, worldwide or localized under the Agreement on a case-to-case basis based on our discretion based upon the nature of the operations and business being carried out by the potential licensee.

Berne Convention
Tanzania is a member of the Berne Convention: The Berne Convention for the Protection of Literary and Artistic Works, is an international agreement governing copyright, which was first accepted in Berne, Switzerland, in 1886.
The Berne Convention, adopted in 1886, deals with the protection of works and the rights of their authors. It provides creators such as authors, musicians, poets, painters etc. with the means to control how their works are used, by whom, and on what terms. It is based on three basic principles and contains a series of provisions determining the minimum protection to be granted, as well as special provisions available to developing countries that want to make use of them.
The three basic principles are the following:
(a) Works originating in one of the Contracting States (that is, works the author of which is a national of such a State or works first published in such a State) must be given the same protection in each of the other Contracting States as the latter grants to the works of its own nationals (principle of "national treatment").
(b) Protection must not be conditional upon compliance with any formality (principle of "automatic" protection).
(c) Protection is independent of the existence of protection in the country of origin of the work (principle of "independence" of protection). If, however, a Contracting State provides for a longer term of protection than the minimum prescribed by the Convention and the work ceases to be protected in the country of origin, protection may be denied once protection in the country of origin ceases.
(2) The minimum standards of protection relate to the works and rights to be protected, and to the duration of protection:
(a) As to works, protection must include "every production in the literary, scientific and artistic domain, whatever the mode or form of its expression" (Article 2(1) of the Convention).
(b) Subject to certain allowed reservations, limitations or exceptions, the following are among the rights that must be recognized as exclusive rights of authorization:
