What is intellectual property
Intellectual property is an intangible property right and an exclusive right of people, in accordance with the law, to mark, goodwill and other relevant objects of their intellectual activity。
What is the scope of intellectual property protection
Works, patents, trademarks, geographical indications, commercial secrets, integrated circuit layout design, new varieties of plants, computer software, etc。
What are the features of intellectual property rights
1. Monopoly: intellectual property is the exclusive preserve of rights holders. When a rights holder acquires an intellectual property right, no person other than the rights holder can own or use the right, unless otherwise provided by law, which would constitute a violation and would be subject to legal sanctions. If the trademark registrant has exclusive exclusive rights over its registered trademark, no other person may unauthorizedly use a trademark similar or similar to the registered trademark on the same or similar goods or services。
Geographicality: intellectual property rights granted by any state or region are protected within that state or region and are not binding on other states or regions. In the case of patent rights, application in china has legal effect only in china; trademark rights, registered in japan, have legal effect only in japan. If it is to be protected in the united states, it is necessary to apply for or register in the united states. Copyright is equally geographical。
3. Timing: intellectual property rights usually have a statutory period of protection, and once the protection has expired, the right terminates itself. Intellectual property rights of intellectual property owners over their intellectual outcomes are not permanent, but are subject to statutory validity. If the duration of protection in the design of integrated circuits is ten years, the duration of protection in registered trademarks is ten years。

1. The unauthorized use of the same or similar trademarks, distinctive signs, patents, works and other creations in the production, operation, advertising, propaganda, performances and other activities
