Overview

As Singapore emerges from the COVID-19 pandemic and re-opens, the Singapore Chamber of Maritime Arbitration (SCMA) is proud to hold our flagship Conference on 26 April 2023, in-person, as an event of the Maritime and Port Authority of Singapore’s Singapore Maritime Week 2023.

For the SCMA Conference 2023, we are pleased to have Mr Lucien Wong, Attorney-General, Attorney-General’s Chambers, grace our event as the Guest-of-Honour and deliver the keynote address.

Focused on the theme “Navigating a Disrupted World – Global Perspectives”, the SCMA Conference 2023 will feature panel discussions exploring the opportunities and challenges brought about by a disrupted world as we are confronted by geopolitical tensions, war, looming global recession and inflation, and new ways of conducting business; as well as the current issues that are pertinent to maritime dispute resolution.

This conference will serve as a platform for legal practitioners, arbitrators and senior executives from across the maritime and legal sectors to congregate and engage in discourse and share their experiences and insights with one another.
