PIJIP organises a meeting on the protection of users’ rights against contractual override

On 18 May 2023, a meeting on the protection of user rights against contract override will be held in Washington DC.

 

The event will focus the discussion around three issues:
Why have some jurisdictions adopted protection against contractual override and others have not?
What effects has contract override protection had on licensors and licensees in jurisdictions where it has been adopted?
In jurisdictions where the protection against contract override has not been adopted, such as the United States, are there alternative legal theories that could have the same effect?

As a member of PIJIP, Maja Bogataj Jančič will present the legislative mechanisms of protection of users’ rights in the Slovenian legal framework. The event will feature presentations by a number of experts on national legal regimes in the EU, the US and elsewhere.
