We protect your innovations
In a business landscape driven by innovation and transformation, trade secrets can be the cornerstone for safeguarding your company’s distinctiveness. A trade secret includes any technical know-how or business information that is not in the public domain, has commercial value due to its secrecy and is diligently protected to maintain its confidential.
Trade secrets can be protected indefinitely if they remain undisclosed. However, if they become public, they lose enforceability unless promptly patented (which offers 20 years of protection) or if the disclosure results from misappropriation. Whatever step you want to take, partnering with Gevers ensures you that your trade secrets and intellectual property are comprehensively protected and remain so.
