A former president of the International Court of Justice and legal counsel from Google DeepMind are among the high-profile speakers at this year’s London International Disputes Week (LIDW).
Former judge and president Joan Donoghue, of Twenty Essex, will deliver the keynote address. As well as her leadership role at The Hague, she is an arbitrator and has had previous roles at the US State Department.
Judge Donoghue said: ‘In today’s increasingly interconnected world, global risks—whether geopolitical, economic, or technological—pose growing challenges for the peaceful settlement of disputes.’
Delegates will also hear from James Besley, co-head of legal at Google DeepMind, who has been instrumental in shaping DeepMind’s approach to legal challenges in artificial intelligence and emerging technologies.
The theme for LIDW25, taking place on 3 June, is ‘Innovation in dispute resolution: navigating global risks’.
