Overview
A patent is an exclusive right or monopoly granted to an inventor or their assignee for a limited period of time, in exchange for the public disclosure of the invention. This monopoly gives you the right to exclude others from making, selling, using or importing the invention covered in the patent. An invention is a solution to a specific technological problem, which relates to the function of a device or machine, or to the process for making a product or to the method for carrying out business.
Why are Patents important?
An exclusive right provided by a patent enables the patent owner to recoup development costs and obtain a return of investment in the development of the patented technology. It is also important to protect your ability to do business. If you don’t patent your invention, someone will copy it and enter the market with your product. The exclusive right also allows you to license the rights to use your patent technology.
Effective patent protection stimulates research and is a key requirement for raising venture capital. It is also crucial to overall economic growth.
