Mr. Agiwal holds more than 450 patents worldwide including 224 patents granted in United States of America. These patents include innovative radio access technologies for 4G/5G/5G-Advanced mobile communications.  Mr. Agiwal is also receiver of several major awards and recognitions at Samsung, including two Samsung Electronics’ Gold Award, the Samsung Best Paper Bronze Award, the Samsung Research Innovator Award, five Inventor of the Year Awards, two Patent of the Year Awards, the Business Contribution Award, the MD’s Appreciation Award and the Beyond Boundaries Award. He is also a Senior Member of IEEE and has published several papers in peer-reviewed journals and conferences.

Mr. Agiwal owes his success to the blessings of his family, guidance of his mentors, colleagues and innovation culture in his organization. “It’s a long journey between the inception of an idea to the reception of patent grant and/or the idea getting implemented in the product. Patience, perseverance, collaboration and focus on details are essential for innovation”, said Mr. Agiwal.
