An idea is the most valuable commodity on earth and needs to be well protected. Without suitable protection, intellectual property can, without restriction, be used by everybody. To maintain your rights to your intellectual property, it must be legally protected. Therefore, avoid a common mistake such as disclosing your idea to third parties prematurely and be sure to take confidential legal advice without obligation at an early stage!

Intellectual property rights can be bought and sold and will involve binding contracts. Usually a document trail exists to establish ownership. Rights can also be acquired at the stage that works are created. Understanding the legal framework that underpins the exploitation of such information is critical to ensuring that the relationship between contractor and client is appropriately documented. Businesses therefore require innovative means of developing, exploiting and protecting these precious assets.Sapphire helps you transform your intellectual assets to tangible business assets.
