Description:

What is a Crown Jewel? A crown jewel is the term given to a company’s most valuable and often most profitable asset(s). This is very often an intellectual property asset, as processes can be emulated but a source code, formula, or proprietary design is protected by intellectual property laws. Patent infringement suits are usually the result of a company attempting to protect its crown jewel(s). Even though Coca-Cola may have many beverage product lines, the secret original formula for Coca-Cola is an example of the company’s crown jewel.
