The RICS Dispute Resolution Service (DRS) is celebrating its 50th anniversary in 2026 with a flagship conference titled "The Future of ADR." This event will convene senior figures from the dispute resolution community, legal profession, industry, and academia to explore the evolving landscape of alternative dispute resolution (ADR) in the built environment.
A central theme of the conference is the responsible integration of emerging technologies, particularly artificial intelligence, into ADR processes. Attendees will gain insights into how these tools can enhance professional practice, while also addressing the ethical, legal, and professional risks associated with their development and application.
Participants will have the opportunity to understand the integration of AI and digital tools into dispute resolution, assess the potential benefits and efficiencies these technologies offer, and learn strategies for their responsible use in alignment with RICS professional standards.
This conference is ideal for professionals involved in dispute resolution, legal practitioners, industry leaders, and academics interested in the future of ADR and the impact of technology on professional practice.
