German term or phrase: Abschluss einer Lizenz- bzw. Know-how- bzw. Verwertungsantrages

The company plans to share information about it with other companies for mutual economic benefit and a further objective: Abschluss einer Lizenz- bzw. Know-how- bzw. Verwertungsantrages. I would love some help translating this phrase, particularly 'Verwertungsantrag'.
