A product of brain-storming that has commercial value, which includes copyrighted property such as artistic or literary works, and mind idea property, such as patents, trade secrets, design, business methods, trademarks, maintenance of the rights or simply ideas. A broad categorical description for the set of intangibles owned and legally protected by a company from outside use or implementation without permission. Intellectual property relates to the fact that products of human intellect should be given the same protective rights & authenticity that apply to physical property. Most developed countries have developed legal measures to protect both forms of property.
Intellectual property is an intangible creation or to say its mind product, converted into tangible form, that is assigned certain rights. Illustrations of intellectual property include an author’s copyright on poetry or to say a book, a distinctive logo design representing a perfume company, unique design of a fashion designer, or a patent to manufacture medicines. Intellectual property law covers the protection of trademarks, patents, copyrights, and trade secrets. In effect, intellectual property laws give the creator of a novel and different product or a temporary monopoly on its use. Seeing all these aspects, it has become the most valuable asset which a person or companies can own.
