COMBAR 5th India Round Table 2023 – Mumbai 15th-16th September 2023
The COMBAR India Committee is pleased to announce that the COMBAR India Round Table will take place in Mumbai, starting with a reception on the evening of Friday 15th September 2023 and finishing with a dinner on Saturday 16th September 2023. The conference and events will be held at The Taj Mahal Palace Hotel, a beautiful venue located in the heart of Mumbai and where the COMBAR 2018 meeting was held.
The India meetings are always both hugely enjoyable and valuable, and Mumbai will signal a return to India, after the successful event which was held in Edinburgh in September 2022.
Details of how to register will be published soon and a group discounted rate is being arranged for rooms at the hotel.
Combar India 4th Annual Roundtable Conference was held on Saturday 17 September 2022 in Edinburgh
The Combar India Committee was established in 2016 to promote links between the English commercial and arbitration Bar and their counterparts in India, taking advantage of the two jurisdictions’ shared legal heritage and frequent opportunities for cross-border work.
We have successfully set up and organised annual Roundtable Conferences in Delhi and in Mumbai at which, by invitation only, leading practitioners are invited to attend to discuss issues of the day in a structured setting and also become Honorary Overseas Members of Combar. We are hoping in due course to organise a Roundtable Conference in London.
We have been extremely fortunate to have had the support and active participation of leading lights of the judiciary and former judiciary at each of our meetings.
2019 – The Hon’ble Justice Rohinton Nariman and Lord Hoffmann
2018 – The Hon’ble Justice Srikrishna and Dame Elizabeth Gloster CBE
2017 – The Hon’ble Dr Justice Chandrachud and Sir Bernard Rix
Our events are well-attended and well-regarded and have attracted a loyal following from both jurisdictions. Leading practitioners from top Indian law firms as well as the Indian Bar regularly participate.
