The paper discusses the issues of determining the legal status and circle of subjects that can be recognized as owners of intellectual property rights to virtual and augmented reality technologies and the objects generated by them. Analyzing the circle of subjects in this area, the author notes the need for correlation of subjects and objects of intellectual property rights. Particular attention is given to determination of the rights of users of virtual or augmented reality platforms to virtual objects created by them.

On 13 September 1962 in Libreville, Gabon, twelve Heads of State and Government adhered to the Agreement on the creation of the African and Malagasy Office of Industrial Property (OMAPI). The departure of Madagascar, the attribution of new competences in the area of copyright, and the need to interlink intellectual property with development soon created a need for a revised agreement. This led to the revision of the agreement in Bangui, Central African Republic on 2 March 1977 and to the creation of the African Intellectual Property Organization (OAPI, an acronym of Organisation Africaine de la Propriété Intellectuelle). A new revision of the agreement took place on 24 February 1999 to ensure the conformity of the agreement to the dispositions of the Agreement on Trade-Related Aspects of Intellectual Property Rights (TRIPS), to which all the Member States are party. This new agreement entered into force on 28 February 2002. Today the OAPI has seventeen Member States and represents more than 100 million inhabitants.

This chapter begins by defining intellectual property rights as the protection of the ‘creation’ of the mind and describing many different rights that are protected by both statute and common law. It divides intellectual property into two broad categories: industrial property and copyright. It also explores the various statutory and common law intellectual property regimes that have their own idiosyncratic criteria in order to qualify for the protection they offer. The chapter distinguishes relevant intellectual property rights for pharmaceutical product marketing authorisation holders from ‘traditional’ intellectual property rights to regulatory exclusivities. It explores the characteristics of regulatory exclusivities that are akin to other intellectual property rights but have their own unique criteria for qualification and enforcement.

The article reveals the features of the contractual form of subjective intellectual property rights to a cinematographic work underthe laws of Ukraine and the European Union as the main form of protection of cinematographic works.The author emphasizes that in modern development of copyright relations, civil law has abandoned the legislative consolidationof the concept of copyright agreement, yet only lists and discloses the sense of its types.Thus, at the legislative and theoretical level, the problem of classifying a copyright agreement on the creation of a cinematogra -phic work as an agreement on the alienation of exclusive rights or a license agreement still remains unresolved. At the present stage,the legal regulation of the creation and use of films is further complicated by the fact that many film studios instead of copyright agreementsenter into refit contracts on the creation of films.The author draws attention to the fact that the French legal doctrine does not see any difference between the subject of the contractand the content of the obligation and uses such concepts as synonyms. The French legislator does not give a general concept, whichwould reveal the main features of the copyright agreement. However, the provisions of the French Intellectual Property Code directlyindicate the possibility of assignment of the author’s property rights (succession in a certain part of copyright) on the basis of the cont -ract. In the French literature and in the practice of courts it is unanimously recognized that from the point of view of general civil lawthe assignment of exclusive property copyrights is in principle a civil contract of sale of property, in turn a license is a civil contract ofproperty lease.The author also emphasizes that there is a necessity to regulate the conclusion of copyright agreements with all subjects of a cinematographicwork, which may have intellectual property rights in connection with the creation of such a work.

The successful implementation of the Strategy for the development of the sphere of innovation activity for the period up to 2030 involves taking into account the peculiarities of the organization of management of the creation, protection of intellectual property rights objects (IPRO) and technology transfer. Therefore, the article is aimed at studying these aspects in scientific institutions and developing effective proposals in this context. The article considers the importance of the role of objects of intellectual property rights in the activities of scientific institutions and the need for full functioning in these institutions of the units for technology transfer, innovation activity and intellectual property. The authors examine the problems that hinder the development of such units in scientific institutions and institutions of higher education. Based on the research of the experience of the aforementioned units in both domestic and foreign scientific institutions, it is recommended to introduce and develop in Ukraine mechanisms of the State support for innovation activities, technology transfer, commercialization of research results, intellectual property objects taking into account the experience of the EU Member States, technologically developed countries, directed towards developing innovations in business; combining business and scientific institutions, higher education institutions for research and development for transfer of technologies in the interests of enterprises; support of high-tech industries; development of innovative activities at the regional level. Important issues, in particular, are the development of model agreements for research and development with various options for the distribution of intellectual property rights between scientific organizations and national or foreign counterparties, which would take into account the international practice of concluding such agreements; development of provisions defining the peculiarities of creation and use of intellectual property objects by employees of the NAS of Ukraine who work in foreign projects and scientific institutions, as well as foreign specialists conducting research and development in institutions of the NAS of Ukraine. The nuances of management of the creation, protection of objects of intellectual property rights and technology transfer in scientific institutions related to the innovative attractiveness of enterprises are planned to be highlighted in further scientific research.
