Cross-Border Contracts: Governing Law and Jurisdiction or Forum Clauses Same Country/Different Country? How Do You Decide?
We recently hosted our quarterly Wine and Wisdom event at our offices in Geneva to discuss on an informal basis the above questions because many times contract drafters confuse governing law clauses and jurisdiction clauses.

We were happy to welcome lawyers from Switzerland, France, Russia, Australia, USA, UK and Spain to this lively and informing discussion.
