This interactive seminar is targeted at those who draft, negotiate and advise on international commercial agreements and cross-border transactions. The programme reviews the sale of goods and the appointment of distributors and agents, as well as the licensing of intellectual property rights within the context of an international contract.
These agreements are used by businesses to expand market reach, enter new territories and efficiently and effectively manage sales and distribution channels. This two-day seminar gives practical advice on the legal considerations and commercial concerns essential for securing a successful and sustainable international deal.
Day one provides a comprehensive overview of the main international legal instruments governing international contracts, the sale of goods, trade terms, documentary sale and letter of credit. Cross-jurisdictional concerns will be explored generally and, in particular, the allocation of jurisdiction, choice of law, and the recognition and enforcement of judgments.
It is essential to carefully negotiate and draft these agreements to ensure that the interests of both parties are protected and that the terms and conditions are clear and mutually beneficial. Day two provides delegates with the requisite knowledge and skills that they need to negotiate and draft international commercial deals generally, and specifically sales, distribution and agency agreements.
The expert trainer uses practical exercises and case studies to help embed the learning and build essential knowledge in this complex area. Delegates will gain insights to be able to create successful business collaborations and encourage business growth through these agreements. There will be ample time to ask your specific questions and to get practical solutions to take back to your workplace.
By the end of this seminar, delegates should be properly equipped with the essential skill-base and substantive legal and business knowledge needed to effectively advise on, negotiate and draft cross-border agency and distribution commercial agreements.
This event is not jurisdiction specific and is ideal for those working in international practice.
