In a world marked by transformation and uncertainty, organizations globally are increasingly encountering a heightened risk of disputes. This trend is further intensified by advancements in technology, shifting ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) considerations, and disruptions in supply chains.
To thrive in today’s interconnected environment, businesses must proactively identify risks and implement strong compliance measures. This is especially critical for General and In-House Counsel throughout the Asia Pacific region, where challenges are compounded by remote work, digital evolution, and diverse legal frameworks requiring a comprehensive understanding of local contexts.
The Legal 500’s Asia Pacific Disputes Summit gathers distinguished General Counsel and leading dispute resolution experts from across the region for an engaging day filled with insightful discussions on dispute prevention, management, and resolution strategies.
The summit features a variety of panels, interviews, and presentations covering a broad array of topics. These include the evolving responsibilities of General Counsel amidst global volatility; selecting the best arbitration forum; the growing importance of ESG and its implications for international arbitration; the rise of legal technology in managing disputes; legal challenges related to greenwashing; crisis management; considerations around third-party funding; and the risks and challenges boards face during internal and external investigations.
Participants can look forward to prominent speakers, ample opportunities for discussions, and networking drinks to wrap up the day.
