As the international arbitration landscape continues to evolve, the Middle East is playing an increasingly important role in shaping its future. To address these changes, the Dubai International Arbitration Centre (DIAC) and ArbitralWomen are bringing together leading voices for a morning dialogue on The Changing International Landscape and Arbitration in the Middle East.

Among the experts contributing to this important discussion is Lee Barry, Senior Managing Director and Practice Area Lead – EMEA at CBBG Group, a Vertex Company. Lee will join fellow panelists Katy Hacking (DIAC), Dr. Mahmoud Hussain (M&CO Legal), and Michelle Nelson (Rock Rose Legal) in a session moderated by Dr. Sally El Sawah. Together, the panel will explore how global trends are influencing arbitration practice across the region and what this means for practitioners and clients alike.
