Understanding Patent Protection
A patent is an exclusive right granted by the government to inventors for their novel, non-obvious, and useful inventions, providing monopoly protection for 20 years from filing date. Patents cover products, processes, methods, compositions, and improvements that meet specific criteria of novelty, inventive step, and industrial applicability. Patent protection prevents others from making, using, selling, or importing the patented invention without permission, enabling inventors to commercialize their innovations and recover research investments.
