DPIIT-NUSRL Seeks AI and Trademark Research
The DPIIT–IPR Chair at the National University of Study and Research in Law (NUSRL), Ranchi, has issued a call for original research submissions on the intersection of artificial intelligence and trademark law. The theme, Brands at the Edge of Intelligence: Trademarks, Technology, and Trust in the AI Economy, invites scholarly examination of how emerging AI technologies affect brand identity, consumer perception, and legal protection.
Researchers are encouraged to explore topics such as AI-generated trademarks, deepfakes impacting brand reputation, automated infringement detection, and the role of consumer trust in algorithm-mediated markets. The deadline for abstract submission is November 20, 2026, with selected authors expected to submit full papers by a later date.
This initiative reflects growing institutional focus on AI’s legal implications. For IP practitioners, it offers an opportunity to contribute to emerging jurisprudence and shape policy discussions around AI and branding.
