Budget estimate

$100,000 – $1,000,000

The budget for this opportunity is likely to be a royalty-bearing exclusive license, which means that Great Sky Inc. will have to pay royalties to the National Institute of Standards and Technology for the use of the licensed patent rights. The amount of the royalties will depend on the terms and conditions of the license agreement. The budget could be in the range of $100,000 to $1,000,000 per year, depending on the sales revenue generated by the licensed products. The factors that may influence the likely payment range include the scope of the exclusive license, the field of use, and the royalty rate.
