Now in its 7th Edition, the conference is firmly established as a major event in the international arbitration calendar, serving as a forum for discussion of energy dispute resolution, and the factors that drive energy disputes in these key markets. Building on its previous tremendous success, this year’s 2-day programme will bring together leading figures from the Middle East and Africa to examine the procedural and technological developments in dispute resolution, the economic and geopolitical drivers of disputes, and what lies ahead for the industry. As ever, the conference will feature a variety of expert speakers and attendance of representatives from the energy industry, government ministries, diplomatic missions, international organisations, academia and leading legal practices. This is an unmissable event for all professionals involved in energy dispute resolution in the Middle East and Africa!
