So, what’s on the programme in 2010?

It will be no surprise considering the title but contracts are certainly the name of the game. How can you get yours to work more for you? The 7th Annual Advanced Contract Risk Management will be all about creating more efficient contracting methods. By looking at the methods of negotiation, the particularly wording of key clauses and the impact of issues such as insurance and dispute resolution you can be sure to go back to the office able to:

Mitigate risk away from your organisation more effectively
Pin-point areas of your contract that need tightening
Streamline your negotiations
Ensure your organisations rights and interests are protected at all angles

Also new for 2010!

There are two opportunities to focus in on key issues on the 25th and 28th May… On May 25th, the FCPA Compliance and Ethics in Emerging Markets focus day will bring you the latest input into issues surrounding the FCPA rules and their use throughout the world. Speakers from Halliburton and Global Industries will hep you to ensure that you won’t fall foul of the regulations! May 28th will see key players in the dispute resolution field offering their expertise in the focus day on Litigation, Dispute Resolution and Case Management. Speakers from ExxonMobil and ConocoPhillips will help delegates to enhance the efficiency of their dispute resolution process.

Back by popular demand…

Once again we will be running an all day Masterclass on Best Practice in Contract Drafting. But rest assured this class is not just a basic ‘how to’ in contract drafting – the strong emphasis on group work and interaction with key clauses concentrated on each year ensure a valuable benchmarking and learning tool! – And make sure you book your places now, because we limit places and this workshop is hugely popular year on year!
