Intellectual property and IT law
YUR.Every company or organisation has to deal with intellectual property rights. There are many types of intellectual property rights, such as trademark rights, trade name rights, design rights, database rights and copyrights. Intellectual property rights and know-how are often of enormous importance to a company and are often of great value. After all, if someone else makes off with your creation or brand name, it will lead to a lot of damage. Legal protection of these rights and enforcement of these rights are therefore crucial.
Besides intellectual property, it is also crucial for a company to think strategically about the legal aspects of IT.
Technological developments follow each other in rapid succession. Applications are invented and developed and the law always has to respond to them. IT and law are therefore constantly influencing each other
