  • You get protection for a pre-determined period, allowing you to keep competitors at bay.
  • You can then use your invention yourself.
  • In addition, since you own your patent for a given period after registration if you wish you can license your patent for others to use it or you can sell it and profit from it. This benefit can only accrue to you when your patent is registered.
