SCC Arbitration Week 2024 wrapped up an exceptional week filled with insightful discussions and new developments in the world of dispute resolution. From 21-25 October, we launched two reports, hosted a series of in-person and online events, attracted leading experts and professionals in Stockholm and globally. Here is what we covered: On the Monday, we launched our report on disputes in public procurement contracts with a webinar featuring Madeleine Thörn, Olof Larsberger and Julia Tavaststjerna. We explored the difference between litigation and arbitation. On the Tuesday, we prepared ourselves for the week to come. On the Wednesday, we invited you to our premises and discussed negotiations – the Swedish way. Our flagship event was a highlight of the year, with former prime minister Stefan Löfven, partner Elisabet Lundgren, Group General Counsel Susan Gustafsson, and SCC Secretary General Caroline Falconer on stage. On the Thursday, we launched our report on arbitration costs and their apportionment under the SCC Rules. We launched the report with a webinar where Jake Lowther presented the conclusions of the analysis and Lotta Knapp Lönroth and Tobias Hamrin gave their two cents on arbitration costs, moderated by Caroline Falconer. On the Friday, we invited you to a roundtable discussion on mediation. A lively discussion together with Pirita Virtanen, Jonas Bengtsson and Madeleine Thörn. We discussed the fact that we see an increased number of commercial mediations in Sweden this year, as well as other trends and challenges. Thank you to all our speakers and attendees for making this year’s SCC Arbitration Week a success! We look forward to continuing these vital conversations in the future. #SCCArbitrationWeek #DisputeResolution #Arbitration #Mediation #Negotiations
