Albert Bates Jr. will be a speaker at the 29th Annual American College of Construction Lawyers Meeting. Mr. Bates will be the moderator of “The Future of Construction ADR: What Will Construction ADR Look Like From the Back Seat
of Your Self-Driving Car in 2035?” on Saturday, February 24 from 9:35 – 10:45 AM.
What will Construction ADR be in 2035? Globalization and the Digital Age will dramatically alter the construction landscape over the next twenty years. Construction ADR must evolve and adapt if it is to retain its place of prominence
in the industry. How will globalization affect the role of mediation in our industry? Will we really see more disputes resolved in real-time? What changes should we expect and will we see in mediation and other non-binding ADR? How
will globalization and technological advances affect arbitration? Can arbitration adapt to the Digital Age? Speaker presentations will be followed by a panel discussion.
