Protecting and Registering Intellectual Property
What?
Intellectual property (IP) is a legal concept which refers to a variety of intangible assets, such as musical, literary, and artistic works; discoveries and inventions; words, phrases, symbols, and designs.
Common types of IP rights include copyright, trademarks, patents, designs, knowhow etc.
Why is it important?
Businesses can derive significant income from licensing IP and it can offer flexibility in the way a business develops. The management and licensing of the different forms of IP can be important to the success of the business that invents or creates a product, to manufacturers, to the designers that configure or refine a product’s appearance etc
Registering your design or trademark can give you more protection than an unregistered design or trademark.
