CHALLENGES

National Geographic’s rights ecosystem was highly complex. Numerous systems and processes existed across the magazine, books, channel and merchandising teams. 

This complex ecosystem was hindering National Geographic’s Legal, Rights and Business Affairs teams from efficiently doing their jobs, specifically from a legal risk and licensing opportunity perspective. The need for a single system and uniform processes was critical.
