Partner Relations

The primary goal of Partner Relations at Collegiate Images is to serve as a resource for our partners in navigating the IP rights landscape. The Partner Relations staff seeks to educate our partners, assist in implementing proper procedures to protect their IP assets and help develop the necessary infrastructure to manage those assets. Media assets that are protected and will serve as a revenue stream for our partners.

What They Are Saying...

"We appreciate CI as an industry leader. The opportunities are tremendous in video and multi-media imagery. And, as with any licensing or trademark endeavor, it is important to manage, protect, and attain appropriate value for The University of Texas name and brand. CI helps us achieve exactly that."

"Rapid Expansion of media outlets has resulted in unprecedented levels of re-purposed exposure for Pac-10 member institutions. Fortunately, we control the copyright to a lot of Pac-10 athletic telecasts, allowing our member institutions and the conference to capitalize on the licensing of the archived productions. CI works closely with the conference and many of our member institutions to provide strategic counsel in this area."
