This year’s London International Disputes Week (LIDW) was bigger than ever with predictions on the future of disputes funding and trends in global enforcement of judgments among the topics up for discussion
Lawyers from more than 100 countries were registered to attend the five-day event this week, with about 150 sessions on offer. Keynote speakers included Baroness Carr, the Lady Chief Justice, and Meg Kinnear, Secretary-General of the International Centre for Settlement of Investment Disputes.
Commercial court judges Mrs Justice Cockerill and Mr Justice Henshaw were due to address opportunities in disputes funding and current cross-border judgment and award enforcement issues, respectively.
The week started with International Arbitration Day, featuring panels on different regions in the world as well as in space (arbitration for low earth orbit disputes and beyond).
Co-chair of LIDW Michael Fletcher said: ‘This year’s event marks a further evolution and reflects London’s pivotal leadership role in international dispute resolution.’
