AEQUITAS Partner Ardak Idayatova took part in the annual London International Disputes Week (LIDW)
Ardak Idayatova, AEQUITAS Partner and Head of DR & Arbitration, visited London in May 2023 to participate in the annual “Global Experts and Markets” conference, and in the London International Disputes Week as well.
We are glad to share Ardak’s impressions: “With a small delay, I would like to share the impression of my visit to London to participate in the annual conference "Global Experts and Markets" held by Allen & Overy and the London International Disputes Week.
GemCon by Allen & Overy is a networking event organized each year for the partners of law firms engaged by A&O. This is a huge event jokingly called by lawyers the United Nations of Law Firms, which is not far away from the truth. More than 300 delegates from more than 145 law firms representing 96 jurisdictions attended the event. Many thanks to Allen & Overy Partner, Anton Konnov, for hearty welcome and a separate informal event for the CIS law firms.
LIDW 2023 (London International Disputes Week) is the second huge event I succeeded to attend. The conference was rich in events, there were concurrent sessions in the leading English law firms, and discussions of the most different and interesting topics in the field of dispute resolution: from liability of cryptocurrency exchanges to construction disputes. Thanks to Tatiana Menshenina, Rupert D'Cruz KC, Adam Greaves, Ruslan Mirzayev, and all other speakers for interesting information”.
