- Intellectual Propertysearch for term
- Intellectual property refers to creations of the mind, like inventions, literary and artistic works, symbols, names, images, and designs used in commerce. Intellectual Property is divided into two categories. The first, industrial property, includes patents, trademarks, industrial designs, and geographic indications of source. Copyright, on the other hand, includes literary and artistic works like novels, poems and plays, films, musical works, visual artworks, and architectural designs. Its boundaries are often vague and constantly evolving in tune with the development of new technologies and capabilities like the Internet.
