Intellectual property inventions, trademarks, written works and trade secrets may not seem as tangible as machinery and equipment, but they are just as important. Attention to the care and protection of your intellectual property assets can add value to your business and inattention can ruin it. The management of your business intellectual property assets is far too important to be left solely to your IP attorney. The popular notion that problems can be handled by specialists when and if they arise is dangerous. By the time some intellectual property problems surface, they may threaten the survival of your company.

In dealing with intellectual property, the prudent entrepreneur must have a strategy for protecting the company's own intellectual property from unauthorized use by others and a way of assuring the company does not inadvertently infringe on the intellectual property rights of others.
