Blockchain-Based Intellectual Property Management System for Publishers

Our scale-up company is seeking a blockchain expert to develop a decentralized platform designed for the management of intellectual property (IP) rights in the publishing and printing industry. The core of the project is to leverage NFTs to represent and track ownership of published works, ensuring authors and publishers have a transparent and immutable method for identifying rights and distributing royalties. Utilizing Ethereum and Layer 2 solutions like Polygon, the platform will provide efficient cross-chain transactions, minimizing costs and increasing transaction speeds. The project will also integrate IPFS for decentralized storage of digital content and metadata, ensuring perpetual access to assets. We aim to create a user-friendly interface using Web3.js and MetaMask, allowing authors and publishers to seamlessly interact with smart contracts. Chainlink oracles will be employed to ensure accurate and timely data feeds for royalty calculations. This solution will address critical pain points in royalty management and IP rights enforcement, offering publishers a competitive edge in risk management and operational efficiency. The successful implementation of this project will serve as a first-of-its-kind solution in the industry, setting a new standard for digital rights management and fostering innovation in publishing.
