LEGAL ADVICE AND SERVICES
In an increasingly knowledge-driven business environment, intellectual property (IP) is a key consideration in day-to-day business decisions. Intellectual property is one of the key considerations effecting all IT-enabled companies and knowledge-based industries. The exploitation, protection and enforcement of IP rights especially in high-tech companies is a key aspect of a company’s measure of success or failure.
Few businesses have the luxury of ignoring the shift in the way the world does business and the emphasis on delivering value not just from physical assets but from intangible capital.
