About the Academic Member

As Arunima self-describes herself on LinkedIn:

"Hello! I’m Arunima, delighted to make your acquaintance.

As a TEDx Speaker, Author, and Specialized Legal Counsel with MBA in finance, I operate at the intersection of law, technology, and innovation, helping organizations navigate fast-evolving regulatory landscapes across multiple jurisdictions with a business-first, future-ready mindset.

With over 12 years of experience spanning corporate law, litigation, and leadership, I have had the privilege of serving as both an in-house strategist and an advocate before the Hon’ble Bombay High Court, bridging the worlds of courtroom advocacy and boardroom strategy.

My work covers over 200 cross-border transactions across the TMT (Technology, Media, and Telecom), Private Equity, M&A, and Sports Law sectors, collectively valued at over $500 million. I have protected and structured global IP portfolios generating more than $100 million in annual revenues, and helped companies achieve 30%+ operational efficiency gains through robust contract and compliance frameworks.

In addition to complex commercial work, I have represented clients before the Hon’ble Supreme Court of India, various High Courts, and quasi-judicial authorities, including the ED, CBI, and GST departments, offering end-to-end dispute resolution and regulatory defense under high-stakes scrutiny.

As an expert in privacy law and animal rights advocate with PETA, I believe that meaningful lawyering lies at the intersection of ethics, empathy, and impact.

Beyond practice, I mentor young lawyers and founders, create accessible legal content for a community of over 1,00,000+ learners, and advocate for AI governance, innovation scaling, and human rights in the digital age.

At my core, I am driven by a simple mission: to turn complex legalities into enablers of innovation, ensuring that progress, integrity, and purpose evolve together."

The Indian Society of Artificial Intelligence and Law (ISAIL.IN) is an artificial intelligence industry forum, founded by Abhivardhan in 2018. Our mission as an independent, not-for-profit industry forum for the analytics & AI industry in India is to promote responsible development of artificial intelligence and its standardisation in India.

Enforcing AI standards in the Indian and Indo-Pacific markets is hard. And yet, ISAIL.IN intends to document data and inputs associated with the market tendencies around three facets of artificial intelligence: its adoption, research around it, and its real-life policy implications across as many sectors as possible.


This is why, the AiStandard.io Alliance, administered by ISAIL.IN, intends to establish an allies of AI entities in India, Asia and the Global South, to develop market-friendly AI standards, with sector-specific, and sector-neutral contexts.
