DIS@SC Week 2026: A Good Cure? Arbitrating Life Science Disputes – German and International Perspectives

Newsletter 3/2026 - International Activities: Upcoming Events

27 August 2026, Singapore

As part of our international outreach, we return to Singapore for the third time with a DIS event during Singapore Convention Week (SC Week). We will discuss life science disputes with experts from Asia and beyond. We would be delighted to welcome our members based in Asia or visiting SC Week.

The life science industry is truly global, just like arbitration. Is resolving disputes in this field with arbitration therefore a good cure? During our side event against the backdrop of the Singapore Convention Week 2026 we will explore the dispute needs of the life science industry from different perspectives.

Do the different players, from big pharma to biotechnological start-ups, have the same needs and resort to the same methods? What are the typical disputes in an innovation-driven and highly regulated industry where investment costs are massive, cooperation across borders common, protection of intellectual property rights critical and blockbuster opportunities are globally scaled? What are the experiences with arbitrating life science disputes and what innovations are desired?
