Among esteemed speakers are Diana Wallis (Former President of ELI and lecturer at the University of Hull, UK), Sjef van Erp (ELI Vice-President and Professor at Maastricht University, the Netherlands) and Marc Clement (former member of the ELI Executive Committee and judge at the Lyon Administrative Appeal Court, France).

The purpose of this conference is to investigate the intersection between contract law and technology in an international and comparative perspective. The focus will be in a number of areas that are still being debated as they relate to the law of contracts: smart contracts and blockchain technology, network contracts, the contractual status of electronic platforms, IP and privacy issues, as well as contract drafting. The conference brings together the expertise of scholars and practitioners from different jurisdictions (North America, Europe, Asia) to contribute to current debates on the impact of technology on Law.
