We are pleased to invite you to an exclusive panel session on "Investment Protection and Dispute Resolution in Central Asia" hosted by Herbert Smith Freehills and the British-Kazakh Society. 

This insightful discussion will be followed by an opportunity to continue the conversation at a networking reception. 

In recent years, Central Asia has emerged as a dynamic hub for foreign investment, propelled by its strategic economic reforms and its rich natural resources. Situated at the intersection of Europe and Asia, the region offers immense potential, attracting foreign investors in search of new opportunities.

However, investing in Central Asia comes with its unique set of challenges, particularly in navigating the region's complex legal and regulatory landscape. Understanding the nuances of dispute resolution in this region is crucial to protect foreign investments and ensuring long-term business success.

Speaking at the event will be:

• Saima Hanif KC, a barrister at 3VB and Judge in the Small Claims Court at the Astana International Financial Centre (AIFC)
• Diana Bayzakova, the director of the Tashkent International Arbitration Centre (TIAC)
• Craig Tevendale, Partner, Head of International Arbitration (London), Head of Energy (UK), Herbert Smith Freehills
