This is the ItechLaw survey among e-commerce legal practitioners from the initial target list of sixteen European jurisdictions on what has been the most significant legal developments that have occurred in the jurisdictions in 2007 and what are likely to be the most significant legal e-commerce issues in the jurisdictions in 2008.

The survey had a number of objectives:
1°/ to obtain a “snapshot” overview of what, in the opinion of the contributors, have been the most significant e-commerce developments in their jurisdiction in 2007, and what are most likely to be the most significant e-commerce developments in 2008. Contributors were requested to limit their responses to three issues for each of the two years;
2°/ to use the findings of the survey to identify trends and potential topics that can be included onthe programmes of future ITechLaw conferences and events;
3°/ to build the membership of the ITechLaw e-Commerce Law Committee and use the survey as
a means of testing whether more substantial surveys or collaborative works or studies can be undertaken by ITechLaw e-Commerce Law Committee.
