Introduction
Intellectual Property (IP) refers to creation of the
mind, such as inventions, literary and artistic works
designs; and symbols, names and images used in
commerce.
• IP is protected in law by, for example, patents,

copyright and trademarks, which enable people
to earn recognition or financial benefit from what
they invent or create.
• By the striking the right balance between the
interest of innovators and the wider public
interest, the IP aims to foster an environment in
which creativity and innovation can flourish
