On the morning of January 10, 2024, at the New World Saigon Hotel in Ho Chi Minh City, Partner Le Net and Partner Nguyen Cong Phu attended and delivered a presentation at the Seminar on Recognition and Enforcement of Arbitral Awards (including the annulment of arbitration awards), organized by AmCham Vietnam HCMC & Danang and IPBA. The seminar drew the participation of over 80 attendees from businesses and law firms in Vietnam, with an additional 100 online participants showing interest in the subject.
During the event, representatives from LNT & Partners addressed two key topics: "Case Study on Setting Aside Arbitral Awards and Non-recognition of Foreign Arbitral Awards in Vietnam" and "Practice of Resolving Petitions for Recognition of Foreign Arbitration Awards in Vietnam." The presentations were rooted in practical experiences, notably from Partner Nguyen Cong Phu's extensive legal career, including his role as the former Deputy Chief Justice of the Economic Court of Ho Chi Minh City People’s Court, spanning over two decades.
We extend our gratitude to the Organizing Committee for providing a platform that allowed legal experts from Vietnam and worldwide to engage in meaningful exchanges and stay informed about crucial developments in recognizing and enforcing foreign arbitration decisions. The discussions encompassed pertinent insights into Vietnam, Singapore, Japan, and Germany and updates about the IBPA's upcoming Annual Conference scheduled for April 2024 in Japan.
