Please i need some help with an essay regarding Intellectual Property.?

Question

Using Examples from case laws and legislation, Explain why a business student would need a good knowledge of Intellectual Property.

An help would be very appreciated. Thank you!

Answer 1

Every business has a name - trademark protects the name.  And inventions, like some kind of machine or chemical process, are patentable.  Any written works, like the content of a website, should be copyrighted.

Please check the US Patent and Trademark Office, and the US Copyright Office, web sites.  they have FAQ sections as well.  Good luck!
