Overview

Small businesses are the foundation of our communities, our economy, and the lifeblood of Licensing International (59% of our membership are small businesses.)  Many are facing multiple challenges right now, and every bit of help counts. The Licensing International Small Business Global Grants Fund provides $5,000 grants (in local currency) to small brand licensing businesses to create and maintain safe, healthy, and sustainable work environments during and beyond the global pandemic.

Never before has the importance of community been more evident. This is about industry supporting industry: our hope is that these supplemental funds will give businesses in need a boost to get through the next days and weeks so that the licensing community as a whole emerges from this global crisis stronger and even more united.
