About the Seminar

This seminar will provide a comprehensive introduction to the principles, concepts, evolution, current trends, and challenges of intellectual property law, as well as its significance in the modern world. The seminar will explore both theoretical and practical aspects, using interactive exercises and discussions to offer participants practical insights into pressing issues, such as recent IP developments in India, the evolution of domestic IP laws to improve protection, the ongoing evolution of IP case law in India (especially in pharmaceutical cases), the necessary legislation to harmonize India's IP system with global standards, and current efforts to strengthen IP enforcement in India.
