International Dispute Resolution Survey (Intellectual Property and Technology Disputes): 2024 Final Report

Abstract

The SIDRA International Dispute Resolution Survey: 2024 Final Report contains the findings of the third iteration of the SIDRA Survey, a cross-border, international survey that examined how and why businesses and lawyers make decisions about resolving cross-border disputes. The Report sheds light on user experiences with arbitration, litigation, mediation, mixed mode (hybrid) dispute resolution and investor-state dispute settlement mechanisms. The sections that contain the approach and design of the Survey (Section 2), the respondent profile (Section 3), as well as the findings on international commercial arbitration (Section 5), mediation (Section 6), litigation (Section 7), mixed mode (hybrid) dispute resolution (Section 8) and investor-state dispute settlement (Section 9) can be found on the SIDRA website at sidra.smu.edu.sg and alternatively via SSRN.

For this edition of the Survey, we launched two new sections – one on intellectual property disputes (Section 10) and another on technology disputes (Section 11). The data corresponding to these sections are presented below. The data gathered from the Report on intellectual property disputes and technology disputes are found in this paper.
