| Abstract | Intellectual property -a legal concept that refers to the product or fruits of human creativity for which exclusive rights are recognized -is often critical to the success of both productand service-based entrepreneurial ventures. One type of intellectual property is a trade secret: a practice, process, formula, design or a compilation of information, which is not generally known or reasonably obtainable, that a business can use to gain an operationally based competitive advantage. Trade secrets and other types of intellectual property are essential to economic growth and development. While much has been written about the laws that protect such intellectual property, few have researched how entrepreneurial ventures can calculate the economic and financial damages when their ideas are stolen and their competitive advantage disappears. We have developed a way to do that. |
