Teaching & speaking
Teaching innovation, with the law in it
Alongside the practice, Dr. Gaurav Soni has taught intellectual property strategy, commercialisation and innovation law as visiting faculty at five institutions across Gujarat: to management students, law students and engineers.
5 appointments
Visiting faculty
Management, law and engineering students: three very different rooms, and three different reasons to care about the same rights.
What the sessions cover
Taught the way it is practised
Every one of these is something the practice does for clients in the same week it is taught.
01
IP strategy
How a portfolio is built deliberately rather than accumulated: what to file, when, in which jurisdictions, and what to leave unprotected.
02
Commercialisation
Turning a registered right into revenue: licensing, franchising, assignment and technology transfer, and the terms that decide who captures the value.
03
Innovation law
Where patent, design, copyright and trade secret law meet in a real product, and how founders and engineers make those choices before launch.
04
Copyright enforcement
Presented at national seminars: what enforcement actually costs, what it achieves, and the traditional knowledge questions India keeps returning to.
