Trade Secrets: The 'W’s and 'H' of Your Business Lifeline

How your business may mitigate risk and have clarity with one’s IP or competitive edge in an ever changing world? Where is your lifeline to safe-harbor? Trade secrets, the foundation to the range of IP rights that have useful effect across all industries. Like trade marks, the benefits of trade secrets to many businesses are not restricted by industry, or limited to just technology-based businesses.

How your business can use trade secrets in isolation, as well as with other forms of IP. More importantly, we will also discuss what steps need to be taken to safeguard your trade secrets, in a highly and uncertain competitive global environment.
