This study analyzes the Brazilian Patent System from the perspective of Law No. 9,279/1996, which regulates the rights and obligations related to industrial property. The research discusses the importance of this legislation in the context of technological innovation, economic development, and the international harmonization promoted by the TRIPS Agreement (Trade-Related Aspects of Intellectual Property Rights). This descriptive and analytical literature review examines the historical evolution, legal foundations, and contemporary challenges of patent protection in Brazil. The findings indicate that, although the law modernized the patent system and strengthened legal security, issues such as administrative delays and the imbalance between inventors’ rights and public interest persist. It concludes that the continuous improvement of the system is essential to reconcile innovation protection with social access to knowledge and sustainable development.
