Document background
The Speaker Agreement Contract is a vital legal document used in Ireland to formalize arrangements between professional speakers and organizing entities. This contract type is essential for any organization engaging speakers for events, conferences, training sessions, or presentations. It provides comprehensive coverage of key aspects including speaker fees, intellectual property rights, recording permissions, and cancellation policies, while ensuring compliance with Irish law and GDPR requirements. The agreement is particularly relevant in today's context where speaking engagements may be delivered both in-person and virtually, requiring flexible terms to accommodate various delivery formats. Organizations should use this document whenever engaging external speakers to ensure clear understanding of terms, protect both parties' interests, and maintain professional standards in line with Irish legal requirements.
