        Nowadays, industrial property rights play an important role in international trade, e-commerce, investment and growing economic relations. In general, industrial property rights system has been introduced as one of the fundamental issues of modern economic policy at the national level and as a context and important tool for sustainable development in developing and least developed countries. Furthermore, robust and effective protection of industrial property rights is very important and decisive factor in facilitating technology transfer policies and to attract foreign direct investment in certain sectors of economic that is vital for sustainable development. Countries that are experiencing liberalization of economic and industrial policies, the existence of a strong and robust intellectual property system is one of the most important factors that are necessary to ensure the process of liberalization. One important result can restructure the industrial and commercial sectors and finally to encourage small and medium investors to use the intellectual property system as a tool for economic and national technology development. However, in spite of the great quantitative and qualitative potentials in Iran, it is not happened any significant growth in the field of knowledge, production and preservation of the protected examples in the field of industrial property; On this basis, the patents system, industrial designs, trademarks, integrated circuits, trade secrets and geographical indications of origin in the system of industrial property rights are reviewed and studied and a comparative study to Paris Convention and Trips Agreement is conducted in this paper.

        Intellectual property is a right that gives its owner the exclusive benefit of human activity, thought and initiative, which itself is divided into various branches such as literary and artistic property rights and industrial property. Compared to other goods and products, the product of human intelligence has four characteristics: 1- First, it is a direct result of the work of human thought; 2- Second, this product falls into the information category; 3- Third, this smart product is not wasted by consumption; 4- The fourth is that it is easily supplied and can be reproduced. These features make the owner of such a product can not control its use and is easily lost. In fact, the economic value of an intellectual creation is due to its rarity and scarcity that if a number of people do not support and achieve it and exploit and use it, the mentioned value will be lost or at least reduced. In the legal system of Iran, several laws have been passed regarding the protection of intellectual property, which are very incomplete and rudimentary in comparison with international laws and need to be amended and supplemented. Nanotechnology has created new legal issues in the field of rights and intellectual property. Some of these issues may be resolved by existing laws or by controlling and modifying the nanosphere, but we may need to enact new laws to control the nanosphere. Manuscript profile

        Sectional distinctiveness is a requirement for trademark protection. However, all legal systems in determining the distinction of a part of the way to support distinguishing marks, and also the effect of the minimum descriptiveness of the mark, in a way that does not harm the distinctiveness of the trademark, They have not adopted a common approach, so that by delving into the judicial procedure and doctrine of different countries, It is possible to separate the symptoms into weak and strong according to their degree of differentiation, and accordingly different legal protection of trademarks, depending on which of the above categories it is mentioned. The decision of the Federal Court of Switzerland in 2000 and the Benelux Court of Justice, which was later repeatedly upheld by the courts, Doctrine and Administration of Internal Market Harmonization of the European Union is included, It has not had any effect on the jurisprudence of Iran's courts, even if indirectly, And the trace of this separation is evident in the recent decisions of the appeals courts in the field of trademarks.
