The franchise statistics: save the date!
For many years, Ludwig & Van Dam franchise lawyers have been periodically publishing franchise statistics on franchise disputes based on published court rulings.
This fall, on October 3, 2024, we will present the results of our most recent research. This will include highlighting trends and differences in relation to recent years. Particular attention will also be paid to the rulings in which the law was discussed, partly in light of the upcoming evaluation of the Franchise Act. In this context, we will establish a relationship with the statistics and provide insight into the way in which the open framework of standards of the Franchise Act has been implemented in case law. This sometimes provides surprising insights. Based on this, we will provide practical tips that can benefit parties in the franchise sector.
The event is free of charge for franchisors and franchisees. Would you like to attend this event? You can register via the contact form or via info@ludwigvandam.nl . We kindly request that you indicate how many people you wish to bring with you.
