Why We Were in That Room

Serving Something
Larger Than Design.

India has thousands of creative studios building identities, packaging, and interfaces daily. Most deliver the work, hand over files, and move on—leaving work unprotected. We joined this summit to change how design IP is treated at an institutional level.

"By being the only creative design studio among government officials, global IP bodies, IP lawyers, and corporate heads of innovation, we brought the designer’s perspective into a conversation that rarely includes it."
