Dubai, UAE – 12 September 2018: Ian Maund, Quantum Global Solutions Regional Director – UAE has been confirmed as a panel speaker at the upcoming Construction Week: Leaders in Construction UAE Summit 2018.
Ian will join industry professionals Andrew Greaves (Addleshaw Goddard), Mark Raymont (Pinsent Masons), Haroon Niazi (HKA), Beau McLaren (HFW) and Mark Andrews (Laing O’Rourke Middle East) on the 12th of September at the panel discussion ‘Construction Disputes – Embracing an Alternative’ starting at 13.10 hrs. The discussion will include the varying reasons for the increase in the UAE’s construction disputes – from a lack of liquidity in the market, to inadequate contract administration and will also review how the industry can embrace various alternative dispute resolution (ADR) methods to avoid lengthy and expensive proceedings.
