‘Patents’ are a type of intellectual property that allows the owner to prevent others from making, importing and using an invention. This is in exchange for publishing the invention for public disclosure. In other words, a patent is an exclusive right granted to an invention that generally offers a new way to do something or a technological solution to a problem. To secure a patent, a patent application must disclose technical information about the invention to the public.
