The London Court of International Arbitration (LCIA) is one of the world's leading international arbitration institutions. With English law continuing to be a predominant choice of law for many international contracts, the LCIA has seen a record number of arbitration cases referred to the LCIA under the LCIA Rules in the past years.

In the Far East, the Shanghai International Arbitration Court (SHIAC 上海国际仲裁中心) (formerly known as the China International Economic and Trade Arbitration Commission Shanghai Commission) is strategically poised as an arbitration centre located in mainland China to service both Chinese parties and an increasing number of foreign parties in the resolution of commercial disputes.

Different markets and regulatory regimes give rise to different needs and requirements for arbitration users. Through the past decades, the LCIA and SHIAC have both shown a tailored approach to address these market demands while striving to achieve the common goal of offering efficient, impartial and effective dispute resolution services at an international standard.

The energy transition is a pathway toward transformation of the energy sector from fossil-based to a low-carbon economy. Decarbonisation of the energy sector requires urgent action on a global scale, and while we are in the midst of an industrial revolution that is shaking up the energy industry and will disrupt other sectors as well, such as transportation, further action is needed to reduce carbon emissions and mitigate the effects of climate change. The European Union Chamber of Commerce welcomes you to the first event of the Energize your Autumn Series. Join us on 11th September and hear about the efforts that companies can make to catalyse further decarbonisation efforts.
