Keating Chambers and Pinsent Masons Africa Construction Law Webinar Series

As a result of the global pandemic and in person events not being possible, Keating Chambers and Pinsent Masons were unable to host what would have been the third Africa Construction Law Conference. To replace this we have organised a joint construction law webinar series.

The first set of these webinars are taking place in September and October 2021 and will take a forward looking view at virtual hearings/courts and virtual adjudications in Africa. Further details on each session along with registration links can be found below.
