development in today’s knowledge-based economy. IPR gives creators and inventors legal protection through exclusive rights, allowing them to control how their work is used. Moral rights protect their personal connection and reputation, while economic rights let them earn from their creations. Monopoly rights provide temporary exclusivity, motivating people to innovate and invest in new ideas. In Bangladesh, there are laws like the Copyright Act, Patent Act, Design Act, and Trademark Act, but in reality, enforcing these laws is still a challenge. Problems such as lack of awareness, weak administration, limited resources, and outdated rules often make it hard for creators to fully protect their work. This sometimes leads to plagiarism, piracy, and misuse of intellectual property. Despite these challenges, Bangladesh has a lot of potential. Digital registration systems, awareness programs, specialized IPR courts, and including IPR education in universities can help strengthen the system. Proper implementation of IPR will protect creators, encourage innovation, attract investment, and support sustainable economic growth, turning intellectual property into a key driver of national progress and creativity.
