Trade secret litigation is on the rise, indicating a significant shift in how businesses protect their intellectual property. As discussed in a recent The National Law Review article, cases have increased steadily, reaching over 1,300 annually until 2021, where a dip caused by the pandemic occurred. Trade secrets, like formulas and customer lists, provide a competitive edge without public disclosure, making them appealing for many companies, especially in rapidly evolving sectors. With the enactment of the Defend Trade Secrets Act and the need for robust internal policies, trade secrets offer a valuable alternative for safeguarding innovations in today's dynamic marketplace. Since our founding in 2007, our team specializes in investigating trade secret theft and misappropriation. Contact bit-x-bit, LLC to learn how we can help you prosecute and defend trade secret matters: https://ow.ly/rfy150SxPNo #TradeSecrets #IntellectualProperty #BusinessProtection
