Official FIDIC Contract Users’ Conferences

The Official FIDIC Contract Users’ Conferences are delivered in-house by FIDIC and target the global contract users’ community across various international regions. They offer a unique opportunity to share progress on the application and use of FIDIC contracts internationally and across different regions and include participation from MDBs, private sector organisations and clients, government, engineers, contractors, investors, consultants, legal professionals and other stakeholders who have an interest in FIDIC contracts.  During each event, attendees are also able to engage and network with FIDIC experts. These conferences are increasingly being seen as the must-attend events for all those working with FIDIC contracts in the world. They are also an excellent forum for stakeholders to exchange knowledge and experience with FIDIC and FIDIC experts. For companies and organisations working in the contractual/legal arena, these conferences offer unique opportunities for profile raising, thought leadership and the chance to build strong relationships with the global FIDIC contract users’ community.
