Innovation - Protect your idea



Innovation:

 Innovators invent new methods of doing things. These inventions can helpful to the society for people's good or can be a way to earn money. 

 So it becomes important to the inventor to secure their idea and protract it form any unauthorized use by other to earn money and claim the solution as their idea.

 The five legal tools for protecting ideas are 

  • Patents, 
  • Trademarks, 
  • Copyrights, 
  • Trade dress unfair competition laws, 
  • and Trade secrets. 

Some of these legal tools can also be used creatively as marketing aids, and often more than one form of protection is available for a single design or innovation

 So get the idea protected under any one of the above on your name or if you want it to be used by anyone and make it open for social good at least publish it in any general so you can claim at any point if need in case someone tries to misuse it or claims as their idea.
