ICC-CEDR-WIPO Conference on Mediation

The International Chamber of Commerce (ICC) along with the Centre for Effective Dispute Resolution (CEDR) and the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) are co-organising a Mediation Conference at Abu Dhabi Global Market (ADGM), in Abu Dhabi on 31 May 2023.

During this conference, panellists including ICC, CEDR, and WIPO representatives will delve into the process and the framework of mediation to share with the audience practical insights and the main features of this process for an efficient dispute resolution. The interplay between mediation and other means of dispute resolution will be discussed and, on that occasion, the first panel will draw on the new ICC Commission Report conclusions on the combined use of arbitration and ADR.

Recent mediation developments in the UAE and the region in terms of governmental and legislative initiatives will be explored on the second panel to reflect the increased interest in mediation regionally. Finally, the last session will explore to what extent mediation can effectively be used to resolve business disputes in particular sectors important to the UAE and the region including mega-infrastructure, energy, and intellectual property-related disputes.
