evaluating assets like patents, trademarks, copyrights, and trade secrets; Strategic Patenting,
which focuses on carefully analysing innovations to protect core technologies without
excessive costs; and Trademark Protection, stressing the importance of registering and
defending trademarks tied to brand identity. The guide also emphasizes the need for vigilant
