Abstract: Inventions definitely arise when there is a necessity - in simple terms inventions are nothing but the solutions to specific problems in the field of science and technology. There is a progressive change in the factors contributing to global economies and as such we are in the age of Innovations. In order to contribute towards this, one has to work out on the possibilities of realizing the potential of research and scientific works and transform our skills from knowledge contribution to the innovation contribution. In reference to this, one has to be aware of various aspects of IPR and try to develop strategies for protection of their inventions. This lecture will mainly focus on bringing awareness on IPRs and to help participants to understand and correlate IP with academic/research efforts with some examples on practical experiences leading to the way forward from basic research to innovative research.
