N/A (eg a multi-practice area theme or practical topic such as wellbeing)
Is London still an attractive seat for Asian parties? Key international arbitration users from important Asian jurisdictions tell us what they want from seats and share their views of London as a seat. Champions for London and Singapore will then make their case and try to win them over. Will the champions succeed in swinging the needle? This will be an interactive discussion of what Asian parties want in neutral seats. The session seeks to serve food for thought laced with fun and humour! The audience will their chance to get into the melee too.
16:00 arrival for a 16:15 start, followed by a drinks reception.
