Talent contract, becoming increasingly more popular in the Polish legal market, is a kind of a very characteristic civil law contract, used in legal practice, for example, to regulate the legal relationship between an investor and a “performer” in the sports, advertising, artistic and other freelance industries.

Participation in the webinar of KIEŁTYKA GŁADKOWSKI LEGAL team is based on:

  • seeking legal solutions in the implementation of solutions for the protection of patent and property rights (including license rights) of software copyrights;
  • exchange of experience as to the practical effectiveness of contractual clauses relating to the protection of the software producers against liability resulting from the legal regulations (including the European Union) concerning dangerous products;
  • effective legal solutions in creating contracts between the organizers of e-sport games and their participants; especially with regard to issues such as image protection, remuneration, financial conditions for participation in professional e-sport events, as well as issues related to sponsorship, streaming royalties; legal rules for using the equipment.
