We value economic (patrimonial) copyright, meaning rights that allow a work to be exploited and generate revenue, provided they are transferable and have economic value.
A valuation is needed for the assignment or acquisition of rights, the allocation of the first consolidation difference, disputes between an author and their publisher, or to determine the financial terms for exploiting a work.
The valuation is carried out by examining the contractual terms and the potential of the market in which the right is exploited, taking into account the economic and marketing characteristics of that market.
It relies on the same fundamentals as the valuation of trademarks, patents, or know-how, while incorporating the contractual specifics and the potential of the market in which the right is exploited.
