It is known to organize events such as the International Seminar exploring the Dynamic Interplay between Law and the Digital on many contemporary and relevant legal issues for the benefit of the student and teaching fraternity throughout the year.
About the International Seminar
The digital revolution is transforming society, economies, and individual rights, presenting both opportunities and challenges for lawmakers. Technologies like artificial intelligence, cryptocurrencies, and data-driven systems are evolving rapidly, often outpacing traditional legal frameworks and raising complex jurisdictional issues. This seminar focuses on the urgent need for adaptable legal frameworks that balance innovation with regulation. By bringing together experts from law, technology, and policy, the event aims to develop strategies for future-proofing legal systems, enhancing digital inclusion, and fostering international cooperation. Key topics include data privacy, cybersecurity, ethical AI usage, and the impacts of automation on employment. Through collaborative discussions, the seminar seeks to empower policymakers to create a secure, equitable, and ethical digital future while ensuring technological innovation aligns with public interest and individual rights.
Who is it for
This Seminar is an endeavor to invite views from cross-sections of the stakeholders on the legal issues relating to technology while learning from the tangle of the purported conclusions reached in the recent past by courts, regulators, technocrats, and commentators on these issues, and to churn out testable theories and suggestions in the field of technology and its legal aspects. The main motto is to widen awareness about the interconnectedness of law, science, and technology among academicians, research scholars, students, and even to the common masses.
