International Virtual Conference on The Future of Dispute Resolution in Infrastructure Sector 2021

Adani Institute of Infrastructure under the aegis of PGDM (Law) Programme, is organizing an International Virtual Conference on “The Future of Dispute Resolution in Infrastructure Sector”. Infrastructure sectors are often surrounded by conflicts and disputes. The conflicts and disputes are mainly due to uncertain environment and the complex nature of projects in infrastructure sector. Such disputes result in delays in project implementation, increase in cost, loss of revenue due investments getting stuck in dispute resolution process. In present days, infrastructure sector contributes highest number of cases for arbitration. The reason for becoming arbitration as a favoured dispute resolution mechanism in this sector is complexities of the disputes in the sector. Such complexities emerge due to the involvement of multiple parties, high stakes in the infrastructure projects, calculation and determination of amount of compensation, analysis, assess and review of huge amount of data and the requirement of involvement of technical experts for the resolution of disputes. It is paramount to identify the causes that lead to disputes between parties in infrastructure projects to minimize number of disputes in this sector for speedy development of infrastructure. At the same time, arbitration laws have undergone number of changes over the past years. However, far more needs to be done for the effective resolution of disputes in infrastructure sectors. At this juncture, it is important to open platform for dialogue, discourse and research in the area of disputes resolution in infrastructure sector.
The conference aims to provide high-level content relevant to students of commerce, management, law, economics, engineering and other allied courses. The conference also provide a platform to young professionals, such as academicians, lawyers, policy advisors, arbitrators, engineers and other industry professionals to exhibit their research ideas and engage in a discourse on future role of dispute resolution mechanisms in infrastructure sector.
