Overview
The success of a business depends on it distinguishing itself from the competition. Giving that value or having that edge that others do not possess. This includes know-how, trade secrets, patents and other forms of IP. Especially in Canada, where trade secrets law and protection is based on common law and civil law principles, companies need to know how best to secure protection. And without a formal process to protect trade secrets, you need to consider different ways to keep sensitive business information confidential.
Our team of professionals in Canada are highly experienced in guiding clients in protecting company secrets and creating trade secrets policies that are right for your business strategy. To help our clients of all sizes manage the growing risks we offer a package of services and tools to help readily identify, track, maintain, and extract value from their trade secrets and other proprietary information. Our services also help to identify and enforce any misappropriation or mis-use of such information.
