Global Launch of ICC Report on Construction Industry Arbitrations

Construction arbitrations continue to need careful handling. They often relate to specialized forms of contract unknown to those involved in construction; frequently give rise to technical or other issues requiring expert evidence and still seem to entail many more documents than other types of disputes.The Report provides guidance on a range of tools and techniques useful in developing cost-effective procedures in construction arbitration. It is intended for parties and arbitrators who do not have much experience in construction arbitrations conducted under the ICC Rules, or who wish to be reminded of the options available or of the practice of others.Participants will gain insights into the work of the ICC Commission on Arbitration and ADR, and an understanding of the specificities of construction arbitration, along with the salient aspects of the Report's main recommendations.The event is free of charge. Places are limited. Registration will be accepted on a first-come, first-served basis.Confirmed Speakers: Professor Dr. Nael G.
