A patent is when the government or an agency of the government gives the right to produce an invention or a good for a set period, others are usually excluded making, using or selling the invention.

Copyright gives the owner of an intellectual property the exclusive right to make copies of a creative work, usually for a limited time.

If a firm has exclusive access to resocurces, it is possible for the firm to prevent other firms from entering into the industry and thus retain monopoly power.
