What Is Intellectual
Property?
Intellectual Property (IP) results from the
expression of an Idea. It may be a brand, an
invention, a design, a song or another intellectual
creation. IP can be owned, bought and sold .

Intellectual property is then divided into four main
categories:

   Patents
   Trade Marks
   Designs
   Copyright
What Is A Patent?
A patent protects new inventions and
covers how things work, what they do, how
they do it, what they are made of and how
they are made. It is essentially the
technical side of how any invention is
made. It gives the owner the right to
prevent others from making, using,
importing or selling the invention without
permission.
Benefits Of Owning A
          Patent
A patent gives you the right to stop others
from copying, manufacturing, selling, and
importing your invention without your
permission. Having a patent in the first
place will probably be enough to stop
someone from stealing your invention. If it
does not, it gives you the right to take legal
action to stop them taking your invention.
What Is A Trademark?
A trade mark is a sign which can
distinguish your goods and services from
those of your competitors (you may refer
to your trade mark as your "brand"). It can
be for example words, logos or a
combination of both.
Benefits Of Having A
          Trademark
 May put people off using your trade mark
  without your permission
 Makes it much easier for you to take legal
  action against anyone who uses your trade
  mark without your permission
 Allows Trading Standards Officers or Police
  to bring criminal charges against
  counterfeiters if they use your trade mark
 Is your property, which means you can sell
  it, franchise it or let other people have a
  licence that allows them to use it.
Design
There are different kinds of protection
which apply to designs:

 UK Registered Design
 UK Design Right
 Registered Community Design
 Unregistered Community Design
 UK Copyright
Does My Product Meet The
Requirements For Production?
 To be registered a design must be new
  and have individual character
 New: No identical design has been
  made available to the public
 Individual Character: Appearance of
  design is different from the appearance
  of other already known designs.
Copyright
   Copyright protects your work
   You must not reproduce copyright protected
    work in another medium without permission
    e.g. publishing photographs on the internet
    etc.
   You should only copy or use work protected by
    copyright with owners permission
   Use © symbol in your work to show copyright
   Many groups of copyright owners are
    represented by collecting society. A
    collecting society will be able to agree licenses
    with users on behalf of owners
