Understanding Intellectual Property Rights. We discuss the different types of intellectual property rights, including inventions, literary and musical works, designs and symbols, and names and pictures used in business. We explain how intellectual property rights allow owners to profit from the use of their ideas and works, and the four primary categories of intellectual property rights: trademarks, copyrights, patents, and trade secrets. #IntellectualProperty #Trademarks #Copyrights #Patents #t
