CII Felicitates Companies, Academic Institutions and Research Institutions excelling in Intellectual Property and Industry Academia Partnership at the CII Annual Summit on Technology, Intellectual Property and Industry Academia Partnership 2024
In a ceremony hosted by Confederation of Indian Industry, the apex industry body, recognized top companies across large, medium, and small segments for their IPR excellence.
In his address at the Award ceremony, Dr R A Mashelkar, Former Director General, CSIR and Chair of Jury for 10th CII Industrial IP Awards – 2024 highlighted that Science must solve, Technology must transform, and Innovation & IP must create impact, and that just cannot be done by academics or industry alone; we must come together in partnership, because what you can't do alone and what I can't do alone, we do it together.
Mr Vipin Sondhi, Chairman, CII National Forum on Industry-Academia Partnership for R&D and Innovation emphasized the need to solve the critical challenge known as the 'Valley of Death,' where promising research often fails to evolve into commercial products due to insufficient investment and collaboration between academia and industry.
In their addresses at the 10th CII Industrial Property awards ceremony, Mr Vivek Shah, Vice- Chairman, CII National Committee on Intellectual Property and CEO Meril Life Sciences and Mr Shaheen Majeed, Vice- Chairman, CII National Committee on Intellectual Property and Global CEO & Managing Director, Sami-Sabinsa Group emphasized on the importance of IP as an economic and strategic asset.
