About this event
Learn how to craft smart dispute resolution clauses that keep your cross-border contracts smooth and hassle-free.
This webinar brings together legal practitioners and in-house counsel to examine how dispute resolution clauses are negotiated, drafted and used in practice across cross-border contracts. Drawing on experience from African and Middle Eastern jurisdictions, the panel will address common pitfalls in drafting, the choice of seat, institution and governing law, and the importance of anticipating enforcement constraints from the outset.
The session will also explore how dispute resolution design can be aligned with business and investment objectives – bridging legal theory with practical, real-world considerations.
