In conjunction with Hemmant's List, we are pleased to launch our three-part Commercial disputes and insolvency seminar series. Building on the success of our 2025 series the 2026 series will tackle current, high impact commercial and insolvency issues, pairing leading legal insights with practical financial perspectives.
Seminar one: Construction contract insolvency risks and management leading into the 2032 Brisbane Olympics
As olympic-related infrastructure programs gather pace across Australia, the scale, complexity and time sensitivity of these projects are sharpening commercial and financial risk across the construction sector. Increased funding intensity, compressed delivery timelines and layered contracting arrangements are prompting renewed attention on how stress can emerge and propagate through major projects.
This session will provide a forum to share current market observations and, with regard to the approach taken to construction projects in the 2012 London Olympics, practical perspectives on the intersection of construction risk and financial distress in large scale and event driven infrastructure projects. We will also consider the implications for stakeholders operating within increasingly constrained and dynamic delivery environments.
