Description
International commercial arbitration in the Asia-Pacific region is riddled with complex
challenges. How does one reconcile the parties competing and conflicting views on
discovery and evidence? How does one navigate an arbitral proceeding involving multiple
parties from a myriad of jurisdictions? How do you level the playing field when the
opposing party is a state entity? The global economic crisis looms large over all these
questions and is giving rise to an increasing number of high-stakes disputes throughout the
region. Join scholars, practitioners and corporate counsel from both sides of the Pacific for a
lively discussion of these developments and the issues currently unfolding in the international
commercial arbitration community.
