2 Jun
11:30 - 13:00
In recent years mega-projects have come to the fore as a driver of significant growth in the Middle East. But as they move from planning, to development, to realisation, disputes, will, and have, invariably begun to arise. In this session, a panel of regional experts, drawn from the construction and legal sectors, will examine the unique complexities that such disputes pose, and the role of arbitration, dispute boards and other forms of ADR, in resolving them.
Panellists will include:
- Teresa Laboucarie-Polak (Linklaters) - moderator
- Sean Cameron (Neom)
- Annaliese Day KC (Fountain Court)
- Haroon Niazi (HKA)
- Saudi Center for Commercial Arbitration
