Canadian businesses, entrepreneurs, creators and innovators have fantastic ideas, do incredible research, and create amazing products and inventions. Intellectual Property (IP) plays a critical role in exploiting the growth and innovation potential of businesses. Many companies have IP and don’t realise it. Protecting it is important!
