Based on this assumption, from the 1970s through the 1990s, developing countries attempted to strongly regulate TTAs. Such a strategy was adopted at the international and local levels alike. In 1985, under the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD), a Code of Conduct on Technology Transfer Agreements was drafted with the purpose of ‘encourage[ing] transfer of technology transactions, particularly those involving developing countries, under conditions where bargaining positions of the parties to the transactions are balanced in such a way as to avoid abuses of a stronger position and thereby to achieve mutually satisfactory agreements.’ The Code’s backbone was the so-called ‘restrictive business practices in Technology Transfer Agreements’, such as grant-back clauses, challenges to validity, exclusive dealing, restrictions on research, restrictions on use of personnel, and price-fixing. Despite the efforts made by developing countries, the implementation of this Code of Conduct has been unsuccessful at the international level. 000049098 542__ $$fhttps://academic.oup.com/grurint/article/72/3/231/6998505 000049098 588__ $$aCrossref 000049098 590__ $$aPublished online: 12-Sep-23 000049098 650_0 $$aIntellectual property. 000049098 650_0 $$aTrade-Related Aspects of Intellectual Property (TRIPS) 000049098 650_0 $$aTechnology transfer. 000049098 650_0 $$aPatents. 000049098 7001_ $$aPela, Juliana Krueger,$$eauthor. 000049098 7731_ $$tGRUR International$$wGRUR 000049098 830_0 $$aGRUR International,$$x2632-8550 ;$$v72, 11, 2023. 000049098 85641 $$uhttps://doi.org/10.1093/grurint/ikad091$$yonline version 000049098 904__ $$aJournal article 000049098 980__ $$aGRUR
