Freshfields’ International Arbitration Partner Thomas Walsh will be speaking on a panel titled “What is a Tech Dispute Anyway?” at the inaugural GAR Live: Technology conference taking place in San Francisco on March 13, 2024. The panel, moderated by Paul Cohen (Barrister, 4-5 Gray’s Inn Square), will explore the history of tech industries and international arbitration, and what the intersection of the two should look like in the future. As GAR has reported on more tech-related disputes in the past 18 months than ever before, the session will delve into the nuances of labeling a dispute as “tech” or “tech-related” and how it influences arbitration. Panelists, also including Hugh Carlson (CEO, Three Crowns), Nilufar Hossain (Investment Manager, Omni Bridgeway), Xavier Oustalniol (Partner, StoneTurn) and Dana Welch (Independent Arbitrator), will discuss whether tech arbitrations require tech arbitrators, why tech giants may be skeptical of international arbitration, and how practitioners and stakeholders can convince potential users to choose arbitration.
