8. Trademark/Licensing (Branded UWM Merchandise Only) Contractors must be licensed and comply with UWM’s trademark licensing requirements for items bearing trademarks, logos, or other symbols of UWM in which the University has a proprietary, licensed or copyright interest. All licensed vendors producing these types of customized products must follow the brand standards put forth by UWM. These brand standards include, but are not limited to, the proper use of university colors, logos, names, and other references. Approved logos, names and colors are included on the institution art sheet, which is available to all licensed vendors via IMG.

Licensed vendors also have access to all approved logos through the Logos on Demand program administered by IMG and Patton. Items that do not accurately reflect the UWM brand will not be approved by the Office of Licensing and Enforcement.

All branded products must be approved by both IMG and UWM’s Office of Licensing and Enforcement before they are produced. The time it takes to receive these approvals and to make any changes required by either entity should be considered when any licensed vendor agrees to delivery dates with a client. This official approval is granted after the licensed vendor submits artwork through IMG’s Brand Manager for review. If a licensed vendor or client has any questions about proper brand usage on items, they should contact the Office of Licensing and Enforcement as soon as possible.

Both IMG College Licensing and UWM’s Office of Licensing and Enforcement can assist vendors in completing the licensing process expeditiously.

Questions regarding this licensing can be directed to:
