About MCIP (Masters’ Conference on Intellectual Property)
MCIP (Masters’ Conference on Intellectual Property) is the flagship annual masters’ conference by RGSOIPL. It is aimed at bringing together masters’ students from across the globe and providing them with a platform to debate and deliberate the contemporary issues in Intellectual Property Law and Policy.
In a globalised information economy, the significance of Intellectual Property Rights and the associated policy questions cannot be overstated. While IP policy definitely bears significant relevance for corporations and MNCs, it also has other significant roles which are often underemphasised. The role of IP policy in promoting socio-economic equality, protecting indigenous culture and tradition, incentivising identity et cetera often go unnoticed by IP researchers. MCIP aims at being the platform which brings forth these issues to the discussion forum. We, at RGSOIPL, believe in thinking global and acting local, and MCIP is the embodiment of this particular belief!
