What We Do
Trade Secrets
Sometimes it is better not to protect proprietary information through the traditional means of obtaining official intellectual property rights. This could be for many reasons – 1. The proprietary knowledge has tremendous value beyond the term of standard IP rights. 2. The uncertainty of receiving a patent grant is not acceptable. 3. It is a pre-existing condition to a profitable licensing or assignment transaction to keep proprietary information confidential. Whatever the case may be, today, an increasing number of enterprises are opting to protect their know-how through trade secrets.
At Reconnaissance, we assist clients in identifying what amongst their assets/ technologies/ information/ data should constitute a trade secret. We also help them in protecting their trade secrets in a fail-safe manner against potential leaks via hacking, corporate theft and destruction. Our experts also leverage clients’ trade secrets using discretion to find the right partner, engineering the negotiations and terms of the engagement. This helps in obtaining high yields and liquidity for our clients.
