Christina Hioureas will speak on a panel on “Contracting and Arbitrating with States and State-owned Entities: Emerging Trends, Challenges and Best Practices” during the 19th ICC New York Conference on International Arbitration.
States and state-owned entities (SoEs) are increasingly involved in cross-border commercial activity. The number of commercial arbitrations between private parties and state actors has grown significantly in the last decade, especially in the energy and infrastructure sectors, and is likely to continue rising as global economic dynamics shift. Commercial arbitrations with states and SoEs present unique challenges compared to disputes with only private parties. The panel will aim to shed light on best practices related to managing commercial arbitration proceedings with states and SoEs from initiation to award enforcement. They will also explore the latest on navigating sovereign immunity and delve into other critical substantive and procedural issues for effectively managing contracts and resolving disputes involving states and SoEs.
