An exchange platform for facilitating a transaction involving spectrum assets is provided that includes a database operable to store information associated with at least one spectrum asset that includes virtual rights to be afforded to a holder of the spectrum asset. The database is further operable to communicate with an end user that provides data to the exchange platform. The database can be accessed by the end user in order to identify the spectrum asset. In more specific embodiments, the database is further operable to store information associated with at least one slot of a channel associated with the spectrum asset. Once secured, the slot can be used, for example, to broadcast content at a designated time interval to a subscribing audience.
