Ep 26: How to avoid mega tech projects becoming mega tech disputes
In this episode of The Roadmap, our technology lawyers, Adrian Sim and Freya Ollerearnshaw distil the key issues and takeaways from the one of the biggest tech disputes to reach the UK courts in recent years. They share perspectives that both customers and suppliers may find useful. In particular, Adrian and Freya will explore:
- the impact of dependency and relief provisions, and what can happen where known dependencies are not expressly included in the contract;
- how conditions precedent can be used by both customers and suppliers to great effect in a variety of circumstances; and
- some pitfalls when liability clauses are not as clearly drafted as they could be.
