"Know-how" is a term denoting practical knowledge, skills and experience that are not subject to formal registration, but are critical to the success of a business. These can be unique production processes, specific working methods, or important information that distinguishes a company in the market. Protecting know-how is essential to maintaining a competitive advantage and preventing the leakage of valuable information to third parties.
The legal protection of know-how usually involves the drafting of confidentiality contracts and agreements that clearly define the rights and obligations of the parties regarding the use and transfer of this knowledge. Confidentiality is a fundamental element of this protection, as it protects the know-how from unauthorized use or disclosure.
Confidentiality agreements ensure that specific know-how will only be used for its intended purpose and that third parties will not have access to this knowledge without the express consent of the holder. On the other hand, know-how transfer agreements are important when a company decides to share its knowledge with a partner or buyer, in which case it is ensured that the transfer will take place under clear and secure conditions.
In addition to contractual measures, know-how protection models can also include other strategic approaches, such as limiting access to critical knowledge only to certain employees, training staff on the importance of confidentiality, and implementing technological solutions to protect information.
