Important notice: this event has been postponed.
With the escalation of COVID-19 (Coronavirus) a number of our members are facing strict travel and meeting attendance restrictions. In light of these concerns, we have postponed this event from its original date of 20 March. Once we have confirmed a new date, we will inform members by sending out an email announcement and updating our website.
IPFA would like to take this opportunity to apologise for any inconvenience caused. However, the health and safety of members and staff is our priority.
Due to some changes in our event schedule, over the coming months we will be producing an increased amount of content for members to access online. You can find our current online content on our website, including industry presentations and webinars.
Keep an eye out for announcements by following us on LinkedIn and by making sure that you are subscribed to the appropriate mailing lists - existing users should visit this page and new users can sign up here.
The World Health Organization has declared the Novel Coronavirus a "public health emergency of international concern". The outbreak of the COVID-19 has already had a significant effect on global businesses due to shortages in the labour market and disruptions to supply chains.
Please join us for an insightful morning where we examine the commercial impact of the outbreak on construction projects both from the point of view of the contractor and employers alike, discussing the different Common Law and Civil Law approaches to such situations and gaining insight on how to successfully navigate through institutional arbitration.
