India is aggressively pushing innovation through IP policy, while being a big consumer market for global products. Innovation is the strongest pillar which will project India in the future. Protecting IP through patents and trademarks filing is crucial for global companies when operating in India. However, through interactions with our global law firm clients, we have identified that the critical ground knowledge about the fast changing IP ecosystem in India is not very easily accessible to the global IP Law practitioners.
