About the Conference

Intellectual property rights refer to the privileges given to the inventor, creator, or an organization to protect their innovation for their exclusive rights of use for a certain periods of time. Their importance arises from the encouragement and the financial aid to stimulate creativity in the field of modern sciences and technology. Considering impact of socio-economic and technological developments several amendments were made in the Intellectual Property Rights Laws. However, in spite of these amendments, there has been consistent increase in violations of IPR in the form of music piracy, software piracy, linking, caching, framing, digital databases and plagiarism etc., and these violations adversely effect the economy. Additionally, counterfeiting of trademarks in cyberspace and cybersquatting is increasing day by day and without stringent provisions, these issues will not be resolved. Trade secret or undisclosed information protection is one of the challenge faced by companies or businesses in absence of concrete legal provisions.
Further, Patent Amendment Act 2005 introduced process and product patent in the field of food, chemical and pharmaceutics, however, there is need to balance conflicting claims of access to medicine and exclusive right over patent in the form of compulsory license. This peculiar imbalance has resulted in reluctance in granting compulsory license which is very much evident from less number of licenses permitted even in medical emergencies. IPR has environmental implication as well. Patent Law has always been criticized for environmental pollution, green house effects and climate change and there is urgent need to revisit the provisions in the light of sustainable development. Growing unauthorized commercial use of traditional knowledge makes indigenous communities more vulnerable and in absence of comprehensive law at international level it is difficult to protect these resources. Further, biotechnological inventions and its impact on the environment need to be reviewed taking into consideration Laws on Climate Change and
Biodiversity. Effective enforcement of Intellectual Property Rights can be understood by analyzing intersection of IPR with other Laws. There is always debate and controversies between IPR and other laws such as IPR provides exclusive rights and recognizes the monopoly and on the other hand Competition Law prevents monopoly. These are just some of the issues prevailing in IPR regime. These issues need academic discussion and deliberations. Therefore, Intellectual Property Rights Cell of our college considered it necessary to have the brain storming discussion regarding various problems prevailing
in an Intellectual Property Rights and to find out solution to deal with them in this changing times.
