New Delhi [India], December 14: In December 2024, Unnati Venture India announced a strategic investment in the Global Resolution Forum (GRF), India’s premier hybrid dispute resolution platform. This partnership is poised to strengthen GRF’s mission of transforming India into a global hub for Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) by leveraging advanced technology, progressive regulations, and unparalleled administrative frameworks.
GRF, founded by Mr. Sourav Karmakar, a distinguished legal professional, offers a dynamic and innovative approach to dispute resolution. Mr. Karmakar’s remarkable journey began with a full scholarship to study International Law in China in 2018, where he focused on Asia-Pacific connectivity. His ventures include founding the LADRC initiative and ALSA India in 2018 and 2019, respectively, and coordinating the ADR Centre at Lloyd Law College in 2021, where he trained over 350 students. In 2022, he established Paran Samaj Kalyan Samiti, a West Bengal-based NGO dedicated to social development. Currently, he serves as a visiting faculty at SGT University and an advisor to its student-run ADR Centre.
With Mr. Karmakar’s leadership, GRF blends domain expertise, well-structured procedures, and advanced facilities to deliver high-quality ADR services. Unnati Venture India’s investment will bolster GRF’s infrastructure, expand its reach, and foster technological innovations, propelling India’s prominence in the global ADR landscape.
Acknowledging the support of Mr. Aakash Deep, a serial entrepreneur, Mr. Karmakar also introduced co-founder Dr. Richa Chowdhury, whose academic contributions from SGT University have been instrumental in GRF’s success.
This collaboration underscores GRF’s unwavering commitment to positioning India as a leader in ADR, marking a pivotal step in reshaping the country’s dispute resolution ecosystem to compete on a global scale.Read more on Linkedin by clicking here
