Abstract: With the creation of the World Trade Organization and the signing of the Agreement on Trade Related Intellectual Property Rights Trade in 1994, a new paradigm was introduced in international trade relations. This situation led to many academic debates: firstly states that countries with greater technological and innovation capacity are benefited with this Agreement as they may sell products with higher value added; and conversely, the less developed countries in the absence of technology or economic resources are relegated innovation to be importers of technology. Therefore, the problem arises because not possible to determine with certainty the impact of the Agreement on the competitiveness of member countries. The methodology used was: the analysis of various empirical studies, the synthesis of statistical reports submitted by international bodies and comparison of various indicators. The conclusion reached was that the only beneficiaries of the Agreement, for the moment are the "developed countries", they best way to take advantage of economic and technological resources; variables that are adverse to the less developed countries.
