LIMA UK, part of the worldwide trade organisation for the licensing industry, is hoping to galvanise the UK licensing industry into online action with the launch of a new Twitter page, a Linked-in group and a Facebook page focusing specifically on the UK market. The sites will serve as independent forums for the UK licensing community to share their licensing views, reviews and ideas between members. Whilst LIMA UK is planning to manage the groups and will be posting news, opinion, events and photos, it is also encouraging the industry to interact and share their news, views and useful information. The move follows the enormous success of the equivalent US LIMA Linked-in group, which now has some 1,700 members and hosts regular and lively discussions on licensing issues, enabling members to increase their contacts, share information and supporting the deal making process. In the UK, LIMA is encouraging as many people as possible to follow its Twitter feed and to “like” its Facebook page. Kelvyn Gardner, LIMA UK Managing Director, comments: “Many of our members have found social networking sites to be valuable online tools for developing their businesses and their personal careers. However until now, there hasn’t been a single official grouping or page that focuses solely on the UK licensing market. We hope to change that and I hope that people will be encouraged to join in.” The new groups are available by clicking on the following links: |
