The second part is concerned with licence contract itself, including relation to licence governed by copyright law. Last but not least it deals with option contract and so called know how licence.

La contrefaçon de la propriété intellectuelle constitue l'un des sujets d'actualité les plus marquants de nos jours. Un tel phénomène n'épargne à l'heure actuelle aucun pays et l'on se demande de quelle manière pourrait-on protéger la propriété intellectuelle, dans une ère où la contrefaçon peut atteindre tous les secteurs intellectuels. Au rebours du droit français qu'est assez avancé en ce domaine, le droit marocain y compris la jurisprudence marocaine quand bien même inspirée de la législation française ne sont qu'au stade du balbutiement. A cet égard, nous avons scindé notre thèse en deux parties, la première est consacrée aux éléments constitutifs de contrefaçon de propriété intellectuelle à savoir, les éléments constitutifs de la contrefaçon de propriété intellectuelle de la manière suivante. Après une introduction, le premier chapitre expose l'élément matériel (un comportement frauduleux) de contrefaçon en matière industrielle et en droit d'auteur et droits voisins. Le second chapitre présente un élément moral (la connaissance d'agir mal), le troisième chapitre traite l'élément légal (un texte de loi). Dans la deuxième partie, on a étudié, la procédure de lutte contre la contrefaçon de propriété intellectuelle, dans un premier temps on a traité la constatation préalable des faits de contrefaçon (Chapitre I), puis le déclenchement de la procédure de lutte contre la contrefaçon (Chapitre II) avant de nous attarder sur les mesures de lutte contre la contrefaçon de propriété intellectuelle (Chapitre III). / Our days, Counterfeiting of intellectual property is one of the most significant subject. Such a phenomenon touchs at present all countries and we wonder how can we preserve intellectual property in Morocco, in this era where counterfeiting can reach all intellectuals sectors. Contrary to French law which is quite advanced in this area, Moroccan law including Moroccan case law, inspired by French law are at the stage of babbling, in  this regard, we have split our thesis in two parts .The first part focuses on the elements of infringement of intellectual property, as follows. After an introduction, the first chapter outlines the physical element of counterfeiting industrial matters and copyright and neighboring rights. The second chapter presents a moral element , the third chapter deals with the legal element (a law). In the second part, we have studied how to fight against counterfeiting of intellectual property, initially was treated prior determination of the facts of infringement (Chapter I), then the start of the procedure against counterfeiting (Chapter II) before dealing with  measures against infringement of intellectual property rights (Chapter III).

A research report submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for a Master of Science degree in Building to the Faculty of Engineering and the Built Environment, School of Construction Economics and Management, University of the Witwatersrand, Johannesburg, 2016 / Background – The South African (SA) real estate sector lacks transparency and there is limited research and robust data on the performance drivers of underlying commercial real estate assets in investment portfolios as opposed to the residential and listed property sectors in the SA context. SA real estate competes internationally and the rapid growth in emerging countries is creating new real estate players and growing competition for real estate investment opportunities (PwC, 2015). It is important for investors in the industry to understand the factors that affect the sector’s performance to be able to plan, review investment strategies, allocate resources efficiently, understand past trends and manage future risks. Purpose - The purpose of the study is to understand the performance of the SA direct commercial real estate sector and identify the key factors that drive the sector’s total returns in the country. Literature review is conducted to identify factors that drive direct commercial real returns in other countries and the identified drivers are tested for relevancy in the SA market. The study applies SA annual commercial real estate returns published by the International Property Databank (IPD) over the past 20 years, from 1995 to 2014, as dependent variables. Findings - Using Pearson’s correlation analysis, the study tests for correlations between CRE returns and independent variables; macroeconomic indicators (exogenous factors) and property performance variables (endogenous factors). The study finds gross rental escalation and real Gross Domestic Product (GDP) growth rates to be highly positively correlated with direct real estate returns. The results provide evidence that gross rental escalation and real GDP have high explanatory values of commercial real estate returns. The study concludes that rental income growth and economic growth are the key drivers of direct commercial real estate total returns. Value - The findings provide evidence of the correlations that exist between exogenous, endogenous variables and CRE returns and assist in understanding the behaviour of the direct commercial real estate sector. This study sets a basis for real estate investments analysis and the results can be applied in asset allocation strategies by guiding investors on the direction CRE returns could take based on performance of the widely published macroeconomic and property performance variables under study. Limitations - The limitation to this study is that the dependent variables, SA annual commercial real estate returns, has time series data of 20 variables in its existence and this has restricted the quantitative methodology choice, hence the use of correlation analysis to quantitatively analyse the relationships that exist between CRE returns and the exogenous and endogenous factors. Further research in the topic would include regression analysis to test for causality. This study has implications on real estate investment decision making and contributes to real estate market literature in SA. / MT2017

Presents the different perspectives on the exploitation of trademarks and patents by their holders, as well as their relationship with the Competition Law, which appears often as a complementary and sometimes as conflicting, justifying the need for further study on the theme. In fact this is where the problem presented on this research appears as it relies precisely in the search for elements that can solves the conflicts that exist between the Intellectual Property and Competition Law, showing, at the final point, elements for help to understanding their coexistence and compatibility. It is a work marked by a qualitative analysis of obtained information mainly through literature research carried out in Brazilian and foreign law publications in the subjects of Industrial Property and Competition Law, as well as case law, taking into account mainly administrative trials promoted by CADE. The document divided into two parts; the first present historical studies and analyzed the constitutional basis both of Industrial Property as the Competition Law. At the second part, the specificities of licensing agreements for patents and brands analyzed, emphasizing situations involving compulsory contraction. It addresses contractual clauses that can harm competition and several unilateral acts of entrepreneurs who, in the exercise of the right to exploit the assets of Industrial Property, finishes to generating damage for competition. It presented practical examples of cases tried in Brazil, the United States and Europe showing that the exploitation of Intellectual Property have been done improperly, causing damage to the market and concurrent in general. It finally determines, that is not possible to consider any act of exploitation of industrial property as illegal per se, it should be considered the rule of reason in the analysis of practical case study / Esta pesquisa analisa tanto a exploração dos bens da Propriedade Industrial quanto a preservação da concorrência, considerando-as como instrumentos para a garantia do desenvolvimento econômico. São apresentadas as diversas perspectivas sobre a exploração de marcas e patentes por seus titulares, bem como a sua relação com o Direito da Concorrência, que se mostra muitas vezes como complementar e outras vezes como conflitante, justificando a necessidade de um estudo mais aprofundado sobre o tema. É nesse ponto que o problema desta pesquisa se apresenta, uma vez que reside, justamente, na busca por elementos que possam solucionar os conflitos que existem entre a Propriedade Industrial e o Direito da Concorrência, apresentando, ao final, elementos para auxiliar na compreensão de sua convivência e compatibilidade. Trata-se de uma pesquisa lastreada numa análise qualitativa de informações obtidas, principalmente, por meio de pesquisa bibliográfica realizada em publicações científicas nacionais e estrangeiras, das áreas de Propriedade Industrial e Direito da Concorrência, bem como jurisprudencial, levando-se em consideração, principalmente, os julgamentos administrativos promovidos pelo CADE. A pesquisa divide-se em duas partes, na primeira são feitos estudos históricos e analisadas as bases constitucionais tanto da Propriedade Industrial quanto do Direito da Concorrência. Na segunda parte são analisadas as características específicas dos contratos de licenciamento de patentes e de marcas, dando ênfase às situações que envolvem a contração compulsória. Abordam-se cláusulas contratuais que podem prejudicar a concorrência, bem como diversos atos unilaterais dos empresários que, no exercício do direito de explorar os bens da Propriedade Industrial, acabam gerando prejuízo à concorrência. São apresentados exemplos práticos de casos julgados no Brasil, nos Estados Unidos e na Europa demonstrando que a exploração da Propriedade Industrial pode ser feita de forma abusiva, causando prejuízos ao mercado e aos concorrentes em geral. Comprova-se, por fim, que não é possível considerar qualquer ato de exploração da propriedade industrial como ilícito per se, devendo-se considerar a regra da razão na análise de cada caso prático

In Chapter 1, we trace the historical development of intellectual property as well as the philosophical justifications for this related to the development of technologies that work with content (music and movies) such as the internet. Therefore, we make analogies with this case in order to capture insights that can guide the analysis regarding the relation intellectual property and 3D printer . Chapter 2 lends itself to analyze the 3D printer and its development in the market; there are also reflections on the Maker Movement, Open Source Hardware licenses and the environmental effects of this technology. Chapter 3 analyzes cases that have already occurred involving 3D printers and intellectual property, analyzing how this technology further enhances the problem of the performance of intellectual property in the XXI century. / O presente trabalho objetiva mapear de que forma a impressão 3D já afeta e afetará a propriedade intelectual. No Capítulo 1, traça-se o desenvolvimento histórico da propriedade intelectual, bem como as justificativas filosóficas para esta em face do desenvolvimento de tecnologias que trabalham com conteúdos (músicas e filmes) como a interent. São feitas assim analogias com este caso de forma a capturar insights que possam nortear análises a respeito da relação propriedade intelectual e impressora 3D . O Capítulo 2 se presta a analisar a impressora 3D e o seu desenvolvimento no mercado; há também reflexões a respeito do Movimento Maker, licenças Open Source Hardware e os efeitos ambientais desta tecnologia. O Capítulo 3 analisa casos que já ocorreram envolvendo a impressora 3D e propriedade intelectual, analisando-se de que forma esta tecnologia problematiza ainda mais o desempenho da propriedade intelectual no século XXI.

Les travaux présentés consistent en une collection d’études consacrées au droit del’immatériel au sens le plus large. Ils visent à mettre en perspective sur une dizained’années la réglementation et la régulation des propriétés intellectuelles dans la sociétéde l’information d’une part, des techniques de surveillance et contrôle, d’autre part.Ces travaux appellent souvent une approche interdisciplinaire qui en fait lasingularité. Il s’agit, en effet, d’associer dans une certaine mesure l’analyse du droitpositif aux sciences sociales. Cette démarche à l’interface vise à mettre en évidence lesenjeux politiques et sociaux de la réglementation-régulation pour favoriser unemeilleure compréhension de l’élaboration de la norme dans un univers dématérialiséet l’éclairer d’un nouveau reflet. La première partie concerne l’acclimatation despropriétés intellectuelles à l’environnement numérique de la société de l’information.Elle s’attache notamment à penser leur réglementation-régulation dedans-dehors dudroit en convoquant les imaginaires sociaux et les controverses autour du droitd’auteur. Les enjeux liés à sa protection conduisent à étudier ses relations avec le droitdes données personnelles. Celles-ci sont au coeur de la seconde partie qui concerne lestechniques de contrôle et surveillance dans différents contextes et sous plusieursaspects, la liberté des communications électroniques et la régulation du commerce / These essays consist of a series of studies about digital law in a broad sense. Thesestudies aim at putting in prospect over the last decade the regulation and thelegislation on intellectual properties rights in the information society on the one hand,on monitoring and control technologies, on the other hand. This work often calls foran interdisciplinary approach, which makes it particular. This is an attempt to link theanalysis of the substantive law to social sciences to a certain extent. This thoughtprocess is at a crossroads in order to highlight social and political issues of theregulation-legislation and to promote a better comprehension of the law makingprocess in a dematerialized world with a new point of view. The first part relates toadaptation of intellectual properties to the new digital area of the information society.More precisely, it sticks to think their regulation-legislation inside-outside the lawinviting social imaginary and controversies about Author’s right. The issues relating tothe protection of intellectual property leads to study its relationships to personal datarights. These rights are in the heart of the second part that relates to control andmonitoring technologies in various contexts and from several angles, freedom ofelectronic communications, regulation of the e-business, and dubious contours of thedigital identity. In particular, it questions the role and the functions of the regulator aswell as the shift of legislation towards the firm from a resolutely critical point of view.
