What this session will cover

A lot can change in 10 years – our panel of industry-leading professionals consider the numerous ways construction disputes may evolve and develop between now and 2035, from exploring the impacts of climate change to the possibilities of AI.

Our panel comprises construction lawyers from both contentious and non-contentious practices, as well as technical experts and a leading KC. These industry-leading professionals will consider how construction disputes may evolve and develop over the next ten years, combining their knowledge and experience to explore a wide range of points from a variety of perspectives. As well as discussing legal, procedural and practical aspects as part of the potential future of dispute resolution, our panel will also examine the intriguing possibilities of tech driven litigation, use of AI, digital twins, and climate change on the construction disputes landscape. Our event highlights the need for those working within construction law to continually adapt in an ever changing world.
