Corporate Conversations: Climate change, energy transition, fair business: challenges for conflict resolution – Part 2

Overview

We are thrilled to release the second of this two-part Corporate Conversations series, titled Climate Change, Energy Transition, Fair Business: Challenges for Conflict Resolution, headed by esteemed counsel Roberta Downey, Head of International Construction and Partner at Vinson & Elkins, and Kai-Uwe Karl, Global Chief Litigation Counsel at GE Renewable Energy.

In part two, our speakers thoroughly examine how mediation and arbitration, as predominant alternative dispute resolutions, fall short on adjusting to the current demands of climate change and the energy transition, and how dispute resolution institutions must adapt their approach to tackling this serious challenge posed to both businesses and due process.

(The views and opinions expressed are those of the participants and do not necessarily reflect the official policy or position of their respective companies.)
