NFPRC Foundation hosted Ms. Anandi Iyer (@anandiviyer), Director, Fraunhofer Office India (@Fraunhofer), at our office for a meeting with our Research Director, Mr. Ananth Krishna (@Ananth_KrishnaS). The conversation was wide-ranging. It focused on the importance of innovation and research for India’s long-term growth, and on how applied research can be connected more closely to the needs of industry and government. They also discussed possible areas of collaboration between NFPRC and Fraunhofer. Fraunhofer’s experience in translational research over nearly two decades in India offered useful perspective on building that connection. We thank Ms. Iyer for her time.

The Hyderabad leg of our pan-India series of pre-budget stakeholder consultations took place at ISB Hyderabad on 2 November 2026. Across five sessions, researchers, founders, clinicians, industry leaders and policy practitioners discussed healthcare and pharmaceuticals, strategic industries, agriculture, financial and institutional reforms, and MSMEs, start-ups and entrepreneurship. With its depth in life sciences, a growing deep-tech and agritech start-up base, and strong academic institutions, Hyderabad offered a useful vantage point on how research, enterprise and public policy can work together. These inputs will feed into our recommendations for the Union Budget 2027–28. We thank all our participants for a full day of engaged discussion, and @ISBedu for hosting us. The series continues to other cities in the coming week. @sohamsankaran @RamjeePallela @vnands @venkinesis @SubbaRajuP @TantriPrasanna @DrShashwatAlok @vinsuman @PopVaxIndia @LVPEI @kimshospitalhyd @indimmune_ @IKP_SciencePark @AIC_CCMB @Marutdrones1 @KheytiFarmers @tm2space @IITHyderabad @Uoheco

Privileged to speak during the Indo-German Conference on AI in Law. My presentation covered the discussion covered the evolution of copyright, law alongside technology. I also spoke about AI reducing the friction for innovation and the implications it holds for patent law.
We are pleased to share that Ananth Krishna (@Ananth_KrishnaS), Research Director at NFPRC Foundation, spoke on the panel "Intellectual Property, AI Literacy & AI-Generated Works" at the Indo-German Conference on "AI in Law: Navigating Regulation, Ethics, and Accountability." The conference was jointly organised by the Max Planck Society(@maxplanckpress), the University of Cologne and the Hertie School, University of Governance, in collaboration with National Law University Delhi. (@NLUDofficial) Ananth discussed how generative AI is unsettling long-held assumptions about authorship and creativity in copyright, and the difficult choices this places before regulators. He traced how copyright law has evolved alongside successive technologies, and examined how AI, by lowering the friction of innovation, raises new questions for patent law. Our intern, Kashish Saxena, and consultant, Arundhati, helped prepare the presentation. #AIinLaw #IntellectualProperty #Copyright #PatentLaw #AIGovernance #NFPRC

Our Editor-in-Chief, Mr @premanshsinha, and Publisher, Mr @Ananth_KrishnaS, also addressed the gathering. Mr Sinha spoke of the review essay as a discipline: it must engage with a book’s arguments, references, and evidence, and called NDRB an institution in the making. Mr Krishna called for genuine intellectual pluralism and rigorous, non-doctrinal thinking, judging books by the strength of their arguments rather than the fashion of their politics.
