3. Confluence Theme
1. Do we need to align philosophies, theories and
models, legal processes and policies with global
ones? Or are we equipped to create them on our
own?
2. How should research in IP in India proceed?
3. Is there a need for inter-disciplinary research, say
legal and management or policy and technology?
4. Can we, as researchers, design a policy that is
flexible to suit the development needs of India and
is robust enough to become a global benchmark?
