The financial loss, reputational harm, and loss of market power may be the consequences of not protecting one’s intellectual property.

Across industries, the struggle to find and keep qualified workers has become one of the biggest challenges in modern business. From construction and logistics to manufacturing and energy, companies are facing a severe talent shortage that slows projects, raises costs, and threatens long-term growth. A combination of demographic shifts, retiring baby boomers, and changing workforce values has created what many now call the great skills gap. While office jobs can adapt to remote or hybrid models, trade-based and hands-on roles cannot be automated or outsourced easily. The real question for business owners is not when the shortage will end, but…
