Plenary Session I – Intellectual Property Rights Revisited in Universe 3.0 – Theme: IP Protection
The panel will discuss the impact of technology on securing IP rights. Challenges and opportunities posed by new-gen technologies such as AI in IPR protection and registrations. How the IPOs are adopting technology and tools to catch up with changing times? As technology advances does it offer better protection or will it change the way we protect IPR? Can we deploy tools to protect unregistered IPR? Is tracking IP made easy with GenAI or will lose meaning altogether?

Technical Session II: Democratizing Healthcare through Technology – Theme: AI and Healthcare
The panel aims to discuss the transformative impact of intelligent medical frameworks and the increased accessibility enabled by new-age technologies. The increasing use of AI algorithms for medical diagnosis, drug discoveries, remote patient care, and personalized treatments presents a wealth of opportunities alongside significant challenges. This discussion will explore the potential of these technologies in the medical and healthcare space, examining both the opportunities they create and the pitfalls and risks associated with decreased human intervention. A critical point of consideration is the extent to which clinical decision-making can be delegated to generative AI and the implications of such a shift.

Technical Session I: Building Guardrails: Understanding the Implications of Technology Adoption Sector-wise – Theme: Liabilities and Risk Mitigation
From co-piloting vehicles to drug discovery, software coding, and news anchoring…. GenAI does it all. Is it becoming as good as humans, or even better? But what happens when something goes wrong? Who is responsible for deep fakes, Data leakage, hallucinations, inherent biases, IPR infringements and much more? What will be the extent of the liabilities? Do we need to revisit the existing jurisprudence and settled case laws to comprehend and affix liabilities in Universe 3.0? Do we need to examine the safety critical features and liabilities at an industry level? Will this pan out differently for various sectors, such as Défense, Medical, Pharmaceutical, IT, Media, and Entertainment? Does is benefit to regulate technology? Is there a need for more robust sectorial regulation?
