This is done as part of a strategy to increase the value of the company’s assets. Having unique intellectual property can give businesses a competitive edge and serve as a vital component of their marketing strategy. Consequently, Intellectual Property (IP) and its associated rights have become highly valuable assets that require careful protection.
