Description
Richard Stephens, the acknowledged guru of IT contract law, is presenting his unmissable annual update to SCL once again for 2023!
Hundreds of delegates over the years will testify to the usefulness of this event in which Richard distils the key cases decided over the year and encapsulates what they mean for the commercial tech lawyer. Importantly, Richard ranges much further than pure tech law to bring you the lessons learnt from contract cases in other areas of practice, many of which might normally go under your radar, and uses his practical experience in IT contracts to present ideas of how to cope with any changes.
All commercial tech lawyers – both in-house and in private practice – in the UK and around the world – should watch this session. This session was specially tailored to the requirements of the SCL, an audience that Richard understands so well.
“Some of the most useful training hours you will spend this year, and essential to ensure your IT Contract Law knowledge is current. I often tell people I would not like to miss it and then meet an attendee on the other side of the negotiation table!” Mark Lumley, SCL Trustee.
