According to Mark Getty, "Intellectual Property is the oil of the 21st Century. All today's richest men have made their money out of intellectual property". It is the creation of mind may it be in invention, literary and artistic work, symbol, name, image and design. With this kind of mindset, people can have a wide variation of knowledge on how to have an intellectual property. But before doing this, one must be able to protect his/her intellectual property through, what? By transforming it into ideas and tangible products and "first to file" basis. And the question here how can we protect it?

Dr.Dumancas highlighted in this part, "Intellectual property is like owning a piece of land, you must regulate, eveluate, monitize, transfer, exclude others and take ownership. Also, it would prevent competitors from copying your trademark, avoid wasteful investment, increase the company's market value, and facilitate negotiations.

There are 9 Intellectual Property Rights, and these rights plays a crucial role in the success of having an intellectual property.

1. Patent

-is a process that provides any technical solutions to a problem which is new, inventive and industrially applicable.

2. Utility Model

-a mini version of patent which is new and industrially applicable.

3. Industrial Design

-is the aesthetic aspect of an article.

4. Trademark

-visible sign capable of distinguishing goods or services.

5. Copyright and Related Rights

-legal protection of the owner and rights.

6. Lay-out designs

7. Geographic Indications

8. Undisclosed Information

9. New Plant Varieties
