CLE Workshop: Resolving Impact Investment Disputes - Current Practices and Future Opportunities

This experiential workshop will immerse participants in the legal, policy and business issues that can arise when an impact investment goes awry. It will draw on the findings of the Grunin Center’s 2025-26 survey of dispute resolution in impact investing and follow-on interviews with market participants to map the current landscape of dispute resolution in this field, including informal and formal proceedings. Workshop participants will engage in simulated negotiations that reflect actual disputes that have arisen in impact investing, and investigate how the existing legal ecosystem for dispute resolution might be improved to reflect the goals of impact investment transactions that aim to marry profit and purpose.

Workshop facilitators: 

• Deborah Burand, Professor of Law Emerita, NYU School of Law
• Sven Volkmer, Partner, White & Case LLP
• Camille Esnou, International Arbitration Fellow, White & Case LLP
• Marie-Camille Pitton, Secretary-General, OHADAC Regional Arbitration Centre
