INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY
In many cases, a company's most important competitive advantage is its intellectual property. This can be patented technical solutions, copyrighted software, proprietary methods/concepts, trademarks, company secrets or know-how. A common feature of most rights is that they require certain measures to enjoy protection against use by others.
