About ILI
Impact licensing is an innovative licensing practice consisting of reusing and re-purposing intellectual assets for the benefit of society without compromising the already existing economic returns. It creates incentives for technology holders to explore new markets and to access more real-world data on technology performance and indicators than those available in the existing markets.
Under the coordination of the Impact Licensing Initiative, the EU-funded ILI project aims to develop a toolkit of six instruments and two training modules as well as a network of intermediaries to introduce and accelerate the implementation of impact licensing in Europe. This will address the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals, guarantee Europe’s access to data as well as technology in times of crisis, and drive innovation and market exploration.
