Intellectual Property

Intellectual property (IP) refers to the legal rights granted to individuals or organizations over their creations and inventions.

Intellectual Property (IP) law is a cornerstone of modern business and innovation, designed to protect the rights of creators, inventors, and businesses. IP law ensures that individuals and companies can safeguard their inventions, brands, creative works, and proprietary knowledge from unauthorized use, enabling them to benefit from their innovations while promoting creativity and technological advancement.
