CCi, A Rimkus Company

CCi, a Rimkus Company, is a proud Platinum sponsor of this year’s The Society of Construction Law - Singapore (#SCL) Conference, titled “Singapore Inc – Staying Best in Class in Construction?” The SCL Annual Conference is a landmark event, bringing together delegates from around the #APAC region to learn from prominent #law practitioners and experts. We look forward to hearing this year’s Keynote Address from Guest of Honour, Mr. Alex Wong Li Kok, Judicial Commissioner of the Supreme Court of Singapore and past Chairman of SCL (Singapore).  The conference focuses on four key areas: the opportunities and challenges brought about by the #energy transition; the ramifications of global disruption and conflict on project delays; the significance of clear and persuasive expert evidence in dispute resolution; and an interactive session investigating the impact artificial intelligence will have upon construction disputes.  This event is not one to be missed by architects, developers, contractors, engineers, project managers, and those working across the spectrum of construction law.  To learn more about the SCL Annual Conference and register, visit our website: https://lnkd.in/e-heeazf   #ConstructionLaw #EnergyTransition #ExpertWitness #DisputeResolution
