Intellectual property
Intellectual property represents the property of your
mind or intellect. In business terms, this also means your
proprietary knowledge.
Types of IP:
patents for new or improved products or
processes;
trade marks for words, symbols, pictures,
sounds, smells or a combination of these, to distinguish
the goods and services of one trader from those of another;
copyright for original material in literary,
artistic, dramatic or musical works, films, broadcasts,
multimedia and computer programs;
confidentiality/trade secrets including
know-how and other confidential or proprietary information.
Find out how these types of intellectual property differ
from business, company and domain names which don't necessarily
give exclusive rights of ownership.
Contact us here at Griffiths Parry Lawyers for more information
concerning any IP issue you may have.
