Risk Management In Infrastructure Construction Contracts – Key Takeaways For Stakeholders – CNC

Introduction

Adopting a strategy that places infrastructure development as the driving force behind economic growth, Vietnam is accelerating and planning many major infrastructure projects, named as airports, metros, railways, seaports, and highways. Reinforced by Resolution No. 68 on promoting private sector participation in economic development, domestic and foreign enterprises are presented with strong opportunities to take part in the development of critical infrastructure projects.

However, alongside these promising developments are risks of underlying disputes over these projects. A notable example is Line 1 of the Ho Chi Minh City Metro, which has been challenged by multiple conflicts and claims by contractors and stakeholders before the project’s target completion date.

To equip involving parties with essential knowledge and tools to anticipate, mitigate, and respond not only to similar risks but also other potential risks, our Webinar: Risk Management in Infrastructure Construction Contracts – Key Takeaways for Stakeholders that features experienced lawyers from multiple jurisdictions across the region would like to share insights and practical experiences in this area with audiences.

Why should you attend this webinar?

✔ Prepare and prevent potential risks

✔ Be ready for disputes that may arise

✔ Meet experienced experts who can support you in the future
