Intellectual property work plays a very important role in promoting the development of enterprises.

1. Strengthening the protection of intellectual property rights can ensure the business safety of enterprises. Enterprises, especially scientific and technological enterprises, are mostly at the forefront of scientific and technological innovation, and produce products suitable for market demand through scientific and technological research and development. Strengthening the protection of intellectual property rights can enable enterprises to enjoy the market benefits brought by intellectual property rights exclusively, avoid the loss of intellectual property rights, avoid the risk of infringement and ensure the business safety of enterprises.

2. Strengthening intellectual property rights can ensure the safety of R&D investment of enterprises. When conducting scientific research projects and independent research and development, enterprises can know the intellectual property status of their fields in time through the analysis and utilization of intellectual property information, so as to avoid infringing on the prior rights of others, resulting in "ineffective" research and development and wasting manpower, material resources and financial resources.

3. Strengthening the protection of intellectual property rights can increase the added value of products in the market. By producing and selling independent intellectual property products, enterprises can enhance their corporate image, enhance their market competitiveness, and even gain the right to speak on market pricing.

4. Strengthening the protection of intellectual property rights can enhance the position of enterprises in joint ventures and business negotiations. Enterprises can use independent intellectual property rights to increase capital and share, pledge financing, license use, establish industrial alliances, etc., and improve their position in joint ventures and business negotiations.

A trademark is a commercial symbol used to distinguish goods and services from different sources. It consists of words, graphics, letters, numbers, three-dimensional symbols, color combinations and sounds, and the combination of the above elements. The acquisition of trademark rights in China must go through the trademark registration procedure, and the principle of prior application is implemented. Trademark is a kind of identification mark in industrial activities, so the function of trademark right mainly lies in maintaining order in industrial activities, and the difference from patent right mainly lies in promoting industrial development.

patent protection

refers to an invention-creation that, after filing a patent application with the State Patent Office and passing the examination according to law, is granted the exclusive right to the invention-creation within a specified time. According to the Patent Law of China, there are three types of inventions, namely, inventions, utility models and designs. After a patent for invention and utility model is granted, the patentee has the exclusive right to the invention-creation. No unit or individual may exploit the patent without the permission of the patentee, that is, they may not manufacture, use, promise to sell, sell or import the patented product for production and business purposes.

after the design patent is granted, no unit or individual may exploit the patent without the permission of the patentee, that is, they may not manufacture, sell or import the patented products for production and business purposes. Without the permission of the patentee, the implementation of his patent will infringe his patent right and cause disputes, which shall be settled by the parties through consultation; Unwilling to negotiate or failing to negotiate, the patentee or interested party may bring a suit in a people's court or request the administrative department for patent affairs to handle it. Of course, there are also non-infringement exceptions, such as the right of prior use and the use of scientific research purposes. Patent protection adopts the protection mode of "two ways, parallel operation and judicial guarantee" of judicial and administrative law enforcement. The administrative protection in this area takes the form of patrolling law enforcement and joint law enforcement, concentrating on cracking down on group infringement, repeated infringement and other phenomena that seriously disturb the patent legal environment.
