A world in transition: this year?s conference reflects on the many externalities influencing the industry, the drivers of change in recent years, including in the decade that has passed since Macondo, and explores what role commercial and investment treaty arbitration will play in the years to come. With the insights of in-house counsel, market analysts, experts and private practice lawyers across a wide range of disciplines, the program will address the geopolitical landscape, sanctions, the environment and the management of climate risk, the interplay between long term contracts and an evolving regulatory landscape, amendments to investment treaties and shifts towards a permanent court for investment treaty disputes, and, more generally, the key trends impacting on energy disputes in this important era.
