Global Construction Law Symposium 2027

The Global Construction Law Symposium Launches in London

In March 2027, Global Legal Group is set to bring the Global Construction Law Symposium to London: a new international forum examining the legal, regulatory and commercial issues shaping the future of the construction industry.

Bringing together leading private practice lawyers, in-house counsel, regulators, industry experts and policymakers, the Symposium will share multi-jurisdictional perspectives on the challenges and opportunities facing the sector.

Across a programme of keynote addresses, expert panels, fireside discussions and networking sessions, the event will explore evolving regulation and building safety, changing project finance structures, emerging risk factors, dispute resolution, delay and expert evidence, and the impact of AI and technology on construction projects and claims.

With perspectives from global construction markets including the UK, Middle East and beyond, the Symposium will offer a valuable opportunity to exchange ideas, share experience and consider how the industry and its legal frameworks must evolve to meet the challenges ahead.
