In this roundtable, we explore how the years-long delays in global litigation – driven by complex, cross-border and digital-era disputes – has led to a rapid shift towards alternative dispute resolution, the increasing importance of clearly defined contractual terms, and a greater emphasis being placed on minimising the escalating costs. Our chosen experts also discuss the main challenges to resolving disputes, the process for determining jurisdiction for cross-border disputes, and the impact of AI on the litigation and dispute resolution landscape.
