About the Seminar/Conference
Intellectual Property Rights have become a cornerstone of innovation-driven economies. The rapid advancement of technology, artificial intelligence, biotechnology, digital commerce, pharmaceuticals, and sustainable innovation has created new legal challenges that require balanced and forward-looking legal responses. The protection of intellectual property must encourage innovation while ensuring equitable access to healthcare, safeguarding public interest, protecting traditional knowledge, preserving biodiversity, and promoting sustainable development.

International instruments such as the TRIPS Agreement, WIPO treaties, and national legislations continue to evolve in response to changing global realities. The National Conference aims to provide an academic platform for researchers, academicians, legal practitioners, policymakers, industry experts, and students to deliberate upon emerging issues in Intellectual Property Rights and explore legal solutions that balance innovation, public health, and sustainable development.
