About this Seminar

While Collaborative Contracting has been an buzz word in construction contracts and/or projects for several years now, the post COVID 19 conditions have brough this form of contracting, to the forefront. 

The speakers will share their views on such contracting primarily as members of the Singapore Academy of Law’s Building & Construction Subcommittee that in January 2022 released the Guide on Collaborative Contracting in the Construction Industry.
