The Second Annual Conference on Dispute Avoidance and Resolution

In the first annual conference on Dispute Avoidance and Resolution (August 29-31, 2006 in Beijing) the focus lay on locating potential disputes in your organization. Now in our SECOND annual we plan to arm you with the silver bullets necessary to settle disputes over your international business. ADR (Alternative Dispute Resolution) itself is not a new concept but how to smartly use those tools might be a new challenge to your ever booming business.

If your organization places a high premium on reducing legal risks and reducing the high cost of disputes then we would like to invite you to take full advantage of this conference which is organized in comprehensive formats such as mock deposition, panel discussion, and key note presentation.

Alex de Gramont is Co-Chair of this conference. He and Kim Nobles will give a presentation entitled: "Successfully Invoking the Protections of International Investment Treaties and Laws." Crowell & Moring is a Lead Sponsor of the event.
