eBRAM at GLAX – The Decennial Summit | Shaping the Future of Global Dispute Resolution

eBRAM was honoured to be a Supporting Organisation of GLAX – The Decennial Summit, which brought together leading arbitrators, general counsels, institutional leaders to explore the forces shaping the future of global disputes.

Marking its 10th edition, Mr Ronald Sum, JP, Vice Chairman of eBRAM, was invited to deliver the Keynote Address during the Summit. In his keynote, Ronald shared the perspectives on innovation, LawTech, cross-border dispute resolution and the importance of collaboration in shaping the future of the profession.

Drawing on eBRAM’s experience, Ronald highlighted how LawTech and Online Dispute Resolution (ODR) can empower legal professionals and facilitate more accessible, efficient and secure dispute resolution. He also introduced eBRAM’s ODR Platform and Deal-Making Portal (DMP), reflecting our commitment to supporting both cross-border dispute resolution and commercial collaboration through technology.

The conversations continued throughout the day, covering topics including Hong Kong’s role in global disputes, financial risk, cross-border enforcement, arbitration and mediation, and the impact of AI, ESG and emerging technologies on the future of law.

Ronald also joined two key sessions:
🔹 Plenary 2 – “The $100M Dispute – Where Deals Collapse and Who Pays the Price”
Exploring the legal, commercial and strategic considerations behind complex disputes.
🔹 The GLA X Grand Debate – “Courts vs Arbitration: Who Controls Global Justice?”
Examining the evolving roles of courts and arbitration in global dispute resolution.

We are grateful to the organiser (Global Legal Association) of GLAX – The Decennial Summit for bringing together such an impressive community and for providing a platform where ideas can be exchanged, perspectives challenged and the future of dispute resolution shaped.

Technology will continue to evolve. The way we resolve disputes will continue to change. But the principles of integrity, fairness, professionalism and trust will remain essential.
