Thesis:

Investigating arbitration in WIPO and comparing it with Iran's international commercial arbitration law in the field of intellectual property

Today, commercial arbitration as one of the alternative dispute resolution methods plays an important role in the settlement of international commercial disputes. This has led to the formulation of laws in different countries as well as the formation of national and international arbitration institutions. These national and international laws and regulations (proceedings in international arbitration institutions) have differences with each other, which can lead to facilitating the use of the arbitration institution and the implementation of its decisions. Based on this, the main challenge of this thesis is to examine the differences and similarities in the provisions of the World Intellectual Property Organization and Iran's International Commercial Arbitration Law. In fact, considering that the WIPO arbitration institution is one of the most active arbitration institutions at the international level, examining its rules and regulations, on the one hand, familiarizes us with the procedure in this arbitration institution, and on the other hand, the differences in It will also reveal the process of arbitration in this institution and the law of international commercial arbitration. Based on the investigations, the law governing the nature of the lawsuit in arbitration is basically subject to the rule of will or the law that the parties to the contract determine by agreement. The conflict between the rules of the national affairs of the countries and the international rules causes these rules to be ignored by the arbitrators despite the will of the parties. The status of intellectual property protection in Iran seems to have new foundations and sometimes laxity, which needs further investigation in new laws. The differences that exist in the arbitration rules of the World Intellectual Property Organization, such as the confidentiality of the arbitration, the speed of the proceedings, the certainty of the decisions without the right to protest, appeals and the institutionality of the arbitration rules (Wipo), seem not to exist in the international commercial arbitration rules. or pale.
