Dr. Chinmay Pandya emphasized the historical and philosophical dimensions of intellectual property, likening it to the ideologies that shape nations.

In his address, Dr. Pandya shared an intriguing insight into the global shifts in the intellectual property landscape, particularly highlighting the 2008 economic crisis and how it marked a pivotal change in how IP assets are valued. He stressed the importance of harnessing intellectual capital not just for financial gain, but for the broader service of humanity.
His profound words on intellectual property resonated deeply with the audience, as he urged them to think of IP not just as a legal framework, but as a driving force for societal transformation and global leadership.
