Building on the success of the 2024 event, the Vietnam International Arbitration Centre (VIAC) and the Society of Construction Law – Viet Nam (SCLVN) co-organize the Ho Chi Minh City International Construction Arbitration Conference – HICAC 2025. This year’s Conference main theme is “Raising the Bar: Enhancing Quality in Dispute Resolution for Vietnam’s Construction Projects – Bridging International Expertise with Domestic Practice”.
HICAC 2025 aims to bring together professionals from the construction industry, legal experts, arbitrators, and academics to discuss the latest trends, practices, and developments in construction arbitration. Vietnam is witnessing significant growth in both construction activities and the demand for quality and efficient construction dispute resolution. This conference, featuring diverse domestic and international perspectives, will provide valuable insights into legal regulations and practical applications, helping businesses in navigating dispute resolution. In addition to informative panel discussions, the conference will provide networking opportunities to foster collaboration and promote the best practices among international delegates and enterprises. The conference will also be a timely platform to contribute to legal reform, particularly the Law on Construction and the Law on Commercial Arbitration, facilitating business activities and streamlining the dispute resolution process.
