Such international context justifies the analysis of choice-of-court clauses in international industrial property agreement, specifically the clauses indication the competent jurisdiction to hear inevitable disputes. This thesis aims to examine the jurisdiction clauses in the international technology transfer agreements involving patents, due to the uncertainty that arises from this theme, and also the few studies written in Brazil and overseas regarding the subject.
