Rimkus is a proud platinum sponsor and participant at the Kuala Lumpur ADR Week 2025.
In 2025, as Malaysia leads ASEAN under the banner of “Inclusivity and Sustainability”, KL ADR Week 2025 will focus on fostering responsible ADR practices that reflect these values. The theme “Inclusive and Sustainable Dispute Resolution: Responsible ADR for a Stronger ASEAN” emphasizes the critical role that Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) plays in promoting not just legal and commercial harmony but also ethical, inclusive, and sustainable solutions for the region.
KL ADR Week 2025 brings together global ADR professionals, legal experts, and industry leaders to explore inclusive and sustainable dispute resolution. As ASEAN continues to grow as a hub for ADR, this event focuses on advancing responsible ADR practices that ensure regional cooperation and economic growth.
