Intellectual property (IP) is the practice of protecting your business ideas from your competitors. Intellectual property can include anything from your brand to designs, logos, and software.
It’s important to safeguard your intellectual property – without robust protection in place, your key concepts and assets are at risk of being used, stolen, and copied. You work hard on these ideas and initiatives; registering your IP ensures everything you create is legally protected.
Our Intellectual Property Checklist guides you on how to stay vigilant. It covers everything from:
- How to identify your businesses’ core intellectual property
- Checking for any infringement issues
- Inclusion of IP clauses in employment contracts
- Commercialising and licensing your IP
