A patent is a legal instrument that serves as a safeguard for intellectual property, granting exclusive rights to inventors and innovators over their creations. It allows them to protect their novel ideas, inventions, and technological advancements from unauthorized use, reproduction, or distribution for a specified period. In essence, a patent is a legal contract between the inventor and the government, providing a framework for the inventor to benefit from their innovative work while promoting the overall progress of society.
IMPORTANCE OF PATENTS:
1. Protection of Innovation: Patents are a crucial means of protecting innovation. They give inventors the exclusive right to utilize, sell, and license their inventions, providing them with a competitive advantage in the marketplace.

4. Economic Benefits: Patents can lead to economic benefits for inventors and businesses. They can monetize their inventions through licensing agreements, partnerships, and technology transfers, generating revenue and spurring economic growth.
5. Legal Recourse Against Infringement: Patents provide a legal basis for recourse in the event of infringement. Inventors can take legal action against those who violate their patent rights, seeking damages, injunctions, or other remedies.
