In the scenario, where India is a brand-hungry market, we see a natural inclination towards licensing as an effective retail strategy. Brand licensing has been well accepted as a retail strategy in India, and through ILE 2018, we bring the universal perception to Indian landscape. The owners of intellectual properties (IPs) comprising the major character, entertainment, celebrity and corporate brands are keen to enter the Indian market. Everyone wants to tap the 1.3 billion customer-base that the country has, especially when the consciousness of brands among consumers in 900+ cities are very high.”

India is an incredibly dynamic market. Between the rapidly growing middle class, leapfrogging technologies, and an appetite for both local and international brands and content, licensing is the smart way to grow your business and engage with your audience,” she added.
