About MCIP

In a globalized 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 that are often underemphasized. The role of IP policy in promoting socio-economic equality, protecting indigenous culture and tradition, incentivizing identity et cetera often go unnoticed by IP researchers. MCIP aims at being the platform that
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!
