In a global environment where innovation, creativity, and differentiation determine a company’s success, intellectual property has become a strategic asset of the highest order. Trademarks, inventions, artistic works, designs, and technological developments not only represent identity and prestige, but also constitute resources with high economic value that require specialized legal protection.
