The topics at the workshop include: strategic overview where issues will be discussed with reference to the National IPR Policy; artiste/performer’s rights – this is a major concern given the role of more distributed systems of digital and music and dance production in recent times; streamlining transfer of technology through licensing and issues regarding royalty payments which are relevant to the macroeconomic considerations associated with India’s external sector; modernizing IPR administration in India in the interest of faster and more efficient and qualitative improvements in the processes of IPR applications; data protection and privacy that are critical to protect information that are relevant to patent grant and protection, and synergies with Make in India, Start Up India and Digital India in the larger interests of technological upgradation and successful deployment.
“The topics mentioned above would be critical as they could make a difference to technology and capital sourcing that will differentiate India from the rest of the BRICS members”, said Professor A. Damodaran, faculty from the Economics and Social Sciences area at IIMB, who has been instrumental in setting up the workshop and whose report on Royalty Payments submitted to the Government of India has triggered debate surrounding the six issues that the conference will cover.
