In this episode of DLA Piper's 'Better Contracts' podcast series, Thilo von Bodungen catches up with Lauren Hurcombe and Joe Masson to explore some of the trends that they are seeing in their respective markets - the EU, Asia, and the UK - as well as the market challenges. The podcast considers issues posed by the current economic climate and increased regulation, and it underscores the importance of understanding regional differences in markets and of avoiding a 'one size fits all' approach to contracting internationally.
