English/Chinese Edition 2009

The book combines the benefits of a manual of specimen agreements with those of a systematic licence commentary, referring to German and EU licence law in all its facets. The book is bilingual (German/English), now also available in an English/Chinese edition.

Anyone involved in practical work will find that this publication significantly relieves their workload in setting up international licence agreements. On the one hand, it will give you more confidence in formulating English-German bilingual agreements; on the other hand, the commentary contains useful explanatory notes on all licensing issues in German and EU law as well as numerous solutions.

With the new edition the authors propose to the licensing parties a practical approach for drafting and assessing the antitrust implications of contract clauses under the new European competition rules without studying the hundreds of pages produced by the European legislator.

The success of the book is not only proven by its 6^th German/English edition. A Korean/English translation has already been published, and Japanese/English and Chinese/English versions are under preparation.
