Think of IP as anything your company knows that gives it a competitive advantage i.e. anything that you would want to keep secret from your competition and/or prevent them from copying.
We are talking about things such as innovation, brand, knowledge, customer lists, know how, proprietary data, supplier agreements, inventions, reputation, digital brand equity, software code, algorithms etc.
Well quite simply if you don't know what you've got and you're not managing it, there is every chance that is it is leaking or being misappropriated, either inadvertently or deliberately.

Intellectual Property can incorporate your logo or catchphrase; your blog; video; design; software; algorithms; innovation; photography; your client list or pricing; even some trade-craft knowledge regarding how to do something more efficiently, etc.
