About the Organization
IPVarna is a devoted research organisation that focuses on the research and development of Intellectual Property Rights. We at IPVarna provide academicians, professionals, research scholars, law students and Intellectual Property Admirers a vibrant forum to exchange ideas by way of blogs and research papers. To promote deeper understanding, cooperation and awareness of the ever evolving world of Intellectual Property Rights, we organise webinars, seminars and expert lectures.
IPVarna is an amalgamation of two words, “IP” that stands for Intellectual Property and “Varna”, a Sanskrit word that represents a variety of colours. Where “IP” illustrates a wide range of human creations implying ownership and protection over groundbreaking ideas, just like “Varna” symbolises the diversity of colours and the creativity flowing thereafter.
