In today's climate of increasing design infringement what better protection to have in your IP Toolkit than intellectual property insurance, the ultimate deterrent to protect designs from theft? Exclusive to ACID members, the ACID IP Insured scheme has a strong accompanying logo for insured parties to use to deter copying and provide real support, a must-have in any proactive IP strategy.
