Intellectual Property Rights (IPRs) transform knowledge into valuable assets. They are essential for societal organization and economic growth.

IPRs provide legal protection to owners of inventions, designs, trademarks, and copyrights. They help ensure the creation and development of new products and technologies.

IPRs can be obtained through registration, such as for patents and trademarks, or automatically, as with copyright. The actual value lies in their enforcement.

IPRs can be used offensively, such as creating a patent to disrupt a market or to gain access to a new industry. They can also be used defensively to protect your own inventions.

A company can use IPRs to prevent rivals from using its inventions, ensuring it maintains a competitive edge and avoids disputes within its own organization.

The concept of IP originated in Europe and has been adopted globally through agreements like the WTO TRIPS Agreement. This highlights the importance of IP for international trade.

The national nature of IP rights can be a drawback in a globalized economy. Ideally, consistent IP rules would exist internationally.

IPRs protect inventors, businesses, and consumers by promoting innovation, competition, and fair trade. By protecting knowledge, they encourage advancements and benefit society as a whole.
