Intellectual property is the general name given to the laws covering patents, trade marks, copyright, designs, circuit layouts, and plant breeder's rights. It is an important part of almost any business as it can apply to confidential information, designs and inventions that contribute to the success of the business.
In most cases, you must take formal steps to have your IP registered. The exceptions are copyright and circuit layout rights, which are automatically protected.
IP Australia is the federal government agency responsible for granting rights in patents, trade marks and designs.
