Intellectual property rights are intangible assets which are granted to a person or a company for conception of an idea which results into a new invention of a product, literary or artistic work, designs and symbols (company logos) etc. These are monopolistic rights which are issued by the government to an inventor for limited period so that the inventor can extract financial benefits from his/her invention.
Our economy today is a knowledge based economy, where ideas and innovations are key drivers for a successful company. The value of a company is defined by the number of Intellectual property rights which the company holds, for even a start-up entrepreneur who is looking for venture capital funding, having patents of intellectual property rights plays vital role in the growth of business.
Intellectual property rights have become an indispensible part of a company. Today, United States holds the maximum number of IP rights both in terms of registration and value. United States intellectual property rights are worth 5 trillion dollars twice the size of the Indian economy.
A paradigm shift is beginning to occur in India too where Indian people and companies are investing more in R&D and thus registering of patents, copyrights, trademarks and industrial designs have substantially gone up in the past decade.
