Intellectual Property

The importance of your intellectual property

As the commercial world becomes increasingly globalised and technology, science and creative industries evolve at a rapid pace, it is apparent that protection and absolute clarity on access and ownership of your intangible assets is key to staying competitive in the market and ensuring that your business is unique and distinctive from the rest of the market. This situation also applies to Indonesia, which has seen rapid development in its legal framework to accommodate the increasing importance of protecting creations, innovations, inventions and discoveries for the development of the country’s economy.
