DAC Consulting Services Proudly Sponsors the HardTalk Alliance — Driving Candid Dialogue in International Arbitration

We are thrilled to announce that DAC Consulting Services has officially joined the HardTalk Alliance as a Global Sponsor!


This partnership marks a significant milestone in our firm’s ongoing commitment to advancing excellence, insight, and constructive debate across the global arbitration and dispute resolution community. 


The HardTalk Alliance is an influential global network that brings together leading institutions and organisations to support HardTalk sessions — dynamic, closed-door discussions held under the Chatham House Rule. These sessions are designed to tackle the most pressing and challenging topics in international arbitration with candour, depth, and intellectual rigour. 


HardTalk events have built a reputation for:

 • Forthright debate on thorny issues facing arbitration practitioners, users and institutions; Paris Arbitration Week

 • High-level engagement with world-class counsel, arbitrators and thought leaders; Paris Arbitration Week

 • Bridging perspectives across jurisdictions, sectors and practice areas, fostering a richer and more nuanced global arbitration conversation;

 • And creating space for fresh thinking on the future of dispute resolution in an increasingly complex legal and commercial landscape.


HardTalk editions — from Paris to New York, Miami, and beyond — not only draw leading practitioners but also serve as crucibles for developing ideas that influence practice and policy in arbitration worldwide. 


At DAC, we believe that the greatest progress in international arbitration comes from open, courageous conversation and diverse perspectives. By supporting the HardTalk Alliance as a Global Sponsor, we are reinforcing our belief in the value of thought leadership, robust debate and global collaboration. This aligns deeply with our mission to support dispute resolution excellence wherever complex engineering, construction and energy disputes arise.


We thank the HardTalk Alliance and Arbitration Channel  for this opportunity, and we look forward to actively contributing to meaningful exchange and the continued development of international arbitration practice.
