There are many forms of intellectual property (IP) that can be registered with the Canadian Intellectual Property Office (CIPO). IP registration offers the owner exclusive legal rights and prevents unauthorized use.
The infographic below explains the differences between the four primary types of IP that can be registered in Canada.
- Trademarks
- Copyrights
- Patents
- Industrial Design
Understanding the differences between these IP types gives an advantage to individuals and businesses over others who don’t know how to protect their assets appropriately.
