What are the ways of patent licensing, and what are the matters needing attention in concluding a patent licensing contract?

Patent licensing methods mainly include the following three types: 1. Exclusive exploitation license means that the licensor grants the licensee the exclusive exploitation right of the licensed patent within the time limit, area or field specified in the license contract. The licensor shall not license the same exploitation content of the patent to a third party, nor shall the licensor exploit the patent himself within the above time limit, area or field. 2. Exclusive exploitation license means that the licensor grants the licensee the right to exploit its patent under certain conditions, and at the same time guarantees that it will not license the third party to exploit the patent within the above-mentioned license scope, but the licensor still reserves the right to exploit the patent. 3. General exploitation license means that the licensor grants the licensee the right to exploit the patent within the time limit, region or field stipulated in the license contract, but the licensor can still exploit the patent within the above-mentioned scope and can continue to license a third party to exploit the patent within the above-mentioned scope.

According to different licensing methods, licensing fees are different.
