    The law on foreign investment protection is one of the fastest developing and intellectually challenging branches of international law with high practical relevance. Investment arbitration is predicted to be a major factor in the development of the global economic system. The number of investment disputes before international arbitral tribunals has increased significantly over the last decades and reflects the notable preferences of the international business community for resolving international investment disputes. Acquaintance with the legal regime for investment arbitration and case law has now become indispensable for anyone seeking to have a full picture of arbitration or enhance his knowledge in international dispute resolution domain.

    Why are alliances important for successful representation in the European Union (EU)?  How do they look like and what are key factors for building up an efficient and effective positioning?  What steps do you need to take to have a lasting impact of alliances?
    This master class will feature how alliances are built in a strategic and structural manner and cover the fact that alliances are an essential part of EU advocacy and lobbying. The program includes examples of alliances that are visibly successful in the automotive, energy building & construction as well as professional services industries.  Some alliance opportunities could be considered only for a specific short term objective, some are aimed to fulfill a long term strategic goal and yet others are “ad-hoc”.
     The course is for all professionals aiming to become actively engaged with the EU.

It will also compare Chinese ADR techniques to traditional ‘Western’ characteristics, discussing what is specific to Chinese arbitration and its proper applications and limitations to different circumstances.

    Companies can prevent and react to employee crime by understanding its nature: the actors, the victim, the crimes and the causes of crime.
