As commercial space activity accelerates—from satellite launches to lunar exploration—so too do the legal challenges that accompany it. Join us for a discussion on the emerging frontier of space arbitration, with a special focus on the Middle East’s growing role in shaping dispute resolution in this sector.
Against the backdrop of Dubai’s dynamic legal and aerospace landscape, this session will explore the unique complexities of extraterrestrial disputes, the adaptability of arbitration frameworks, and the region’s potential to become a hub for resolving conflicts in orbit and beyond.
