The World Intellectual Property Organization's Arbitration and Mediation Center has developed the WIPO Mediation and Expedited Arbitration Rules for Film and Media, which have been specifically tailored to resolve potential disputes in the film and media sectors.

The rules have been developed in cooperation with industry experts, along with a number of the special model contract clauses and submission agreements.

The Organization says the rules are particularly appropriate for international film and media transactions where parties require an expedited arbitration process and mediation.
