Hall of Fame
The Licensing International Hall of Fame is home to the most esteemed global licensing executives of the last three decades, bastions of the industry who have shaped our business. Every year since 1989, at least one (and sometimes multiple) individuals are selected to join the ranks of licensing’s best and brightest.
Inductees are selected by a committee of industry executives based on nominations received from the global licensing community at large. The Licensing International Board of Directors reviews all recommendations before making a final selection.
Nominations for the 2025 Hall of Fame are open now and will close on Friday, March 7th, 2025. Please view the criteria below before submitting.
