Benefits of securing Intellectual Property Rights The document discusses the benefits of securing different types of intellectual property rights including trademarks, patents, copyrights, industrial designs, and trade secrets. Registering trademarks protects a company's brand and logo while also providing legal remedies. Patents promote innovation by granting limited monopolies and encouraging investment in new technologies. Copyrights protect artistic and literary works from misuse and allow creators to profit from their work. Industrial designs protect the aesthetic design of products to increase commercial value and marketability. Trade secrets secured through non-disclosure agreements can be protected indefinitely as long as information remains undisclosed to the public.
