Details of the Organization

Aumirah, the word, is the portmanteau of two Sanskrit origin words and found in numerous Hindu texts i.e., Aum [the primordial sound] + Irah [the other name for Goddess of Knowledge, Saraswati] - thus the name constantly reminds us of age old Indian practice of assigning divinity to knowledge and its bearer, and protect it and manage it.

Aumirah is therefore built on high principles of Hindu philosophy and the name constantly reminds us of those principles while serving our clients across the globe.

Aumirah was founded as a sole proprietorship in mid of 2014 and now boasts of a capable, spirited and happy team of nearly 60 professionals from different walks of science, technology and law - catering to all corporate and IP law needs of global science/tech/innovation-driven startups, SMEs and Fortune 500 companies.
