- What form is the intellectual property (e.g., patents, trademarks, trade secrets)?
- When can the intellectual property be used and when does any afforded protection expire?
- Where is the intellectual property owned, maintained, utilized, exploited, and shared?
- How is this intellectual property protected, commercialized, and enforced?
