What Is Proprietary Technology?

Patents and know-how, patents refer to the exclusive benefits enjoyed by the inventor over the technological achievements of his invention within a certain period of time. After a person or enterprise invents a production method or product, he applies to the government for a "patent" patent). Relevant government agencies review the application and publish its "patent specification" (which describes the technical points). When the examination is qualified and no objection is raised within a certain period of time, the government approves the invention as a patent, issues a certificate, and assigns a "patent number" to allow the patent to be enjoyed for a certain number of years. ^[1]
