Janet Dwoskin brings over 30 years of licensing expertise across music, theater, art, brands, fashion, and beyond — the only agency that covers every sector with the same depth of mastery.
Janet Dwoskin is one of the licensing industry's most respected and versatile agents. With over 30 years of experience, she has built a career that spans virtually every creative and commercial sector — from music legends like The Rolling Stones and The Beatles to iconic children's properties, fine art, fashion, and global brand collaborations.
Her career was shaped at the company founded by Dell Furano — the pioneer of music merchandise, who started with the Grateful Dead and built an empire later acquired by Live Nation. As VP of Licensing at Live Nation, Janet was responsible for some of the most iconic licensing programs in music history. That foundation gave her an unparalleled understanding of how culture and commerce intersect at the highest level.
What sets Janet apart is not just her network — it's her approach. She engages with clients through fluid, creative conversations, identifying angles and opportunities that others miss. Her process is deeply human and entirely unreplicable: relationships built over decades, intuition honed through hundreds of deals, and a genuine passion for connecting the right people.
As CEO of Licensed Right International, Janet leads a global agency that serves both licensors (property owners seeking to extend their brand) and licensees (manufacturers and brands seeking to acquire licenses). LRI is the only agency of its kind — covering every sector with equal depth and mastery.
"I work in a stream of consciousness — I listen to what you need, and I find the angle that makes your deal impossible to refuse."
— Janet Dwoskin, CEO
Most licensing agents specialize in a single industry. Janet Dwoskin and LRI are different — uniquely positioned to serve clients across every creative and commercial sector with the same depth of expertise and network.
No other agency covers this ground.

The licensing industry is full of specialists. Beanstalk dominates corporate brands. Jewel Branding focuses on art. MTI handles theater. But when you need an agent who can navigate every sector — and has the relationships to prove it — there is only one choice.
While competitors like Beanstalk (now CAA), LMCA, and Jewel Branding each dominate one or two sectors, LRI covers music, theater, art, brands, fashion, entertainment, children's properties, and celebrity licensing — all under one roof.
LRI uniquely represents both licensors (property owners) and licensees (manufacturers and brands). Most agencies pick one side. Janet works both, giving her a complete picture of every deal.
Licensing is a relationship business. Janet's network — built over three decades at the highest levels of the industry — is her most powerful asset. She knows the decision-makers personally.
Janet doesn't follow a script. She listens, thinks creatively, and finds the angle that makes a deal work. Her process is fluid, intuitive, and deeply personal — the opposite of a corporate agency.
