Intellectual Property Layering

rade secrets is one of the key type of IP, but it’s non-registrable. So, how is it being protected? In my previous topic, NDA – it’s a document that enables protection of key information, your secret sauces etc agreed between mutual parties.

Would the document surfaces to protect your ideas, inventions, something that you have created with blood and sweat? It seems simple enough, with rules & regulations, enforcements, law etc…but with technological advancements that is at speed, would these be able to keep up with the protections required on what you have built?

LIP (Layered Intellectual Property) is a method for small business owners to structure the IP. Taking ownership, creating awareness and managing it is crucial in your company initial phase of growth. There is no law for IP enforcement but managing it from the start by taking charge of your important IP assets like people your hire, setting the cultural context, setting up the processes to ensure comprehensive protections will keep your intangibles valuable and secured.

With the right IP strategy, implementing layered IP will protect your key innovation and ensure your company thrive in a competitive marketplace.
