About the event
You are invited to a webinar hosted by our corporate member DLA Piper, in collaboration with the Swedish, Finnish and Norwegian Business Council. This session will explore the legal concept of force majeure under both English and UAE law, and its practical implications for companies operating in the region.
In today’s environment of geopolitical uncertainty and ongoing supply chain disruptions, understanding contractual risk and legal protections has become increasingly important. Force majeure clauses are often relied upon in times of disruption—but their application can vary significantly depending on jurisdiction and contract structure.
This session will provide practical, business-focused insights into:
The legal framework of force majeure under English and UAE law, including key differences
When and how force majeure can be invoked, and what alternatives may be available
Practical guidance supported by real-world examples and scenarios
