Post-event Update on "Construction vs Construction Law – An Update" (24 Oct 2011)
The penultimate SCL seminar for the calendar year was held on 24 October 2011 at Maxwell Chambers. There was an excellent attendance of about 50 delegates (comprising a good mix of Architects, Engineers, Project Managers, Quantity Surveyors, Construction & Design Consultants, Lawyers and In-House Counsel), all keenly interested in hearing a topic on construction law from a construction practicioner's view-point.
The presentation was well received, and evoked some thoughtful discussion in the the Q&A session that followed. It was evident from the seminar that construction practicioners are facing a dynamic environment relative to which both construction-related practices and the law are developing, and thus constantly presenting new challenges and opportunities.
