Conference or social function bookings received after this time will not be eligible for any refund of fees. <strong> Note:</strong> should you have difficulties in obtaining your visa and are not able to attend the Conference this cancellation policy will still apply.</p> <p><strong>Book with confidence</strong></p> <ul> <li>If the IBA needs to reschedule the event, your booking will be automatically transferred to the new date and no additional fees will be charged. If this date is not convenient for a delegate, a refund of the cost of the conference place will be available on request to the IBA.</li> <li>If the IBA is unable to reschedule the conference within 12 months of the original scheduled date, a full refund of the cost of the conference place will automatically be made to all delegates.</li> <li>Please note that the IBA will not provide refunds for any costs incurred including any travel costs.</li> </ul> <p>Please note, these terms are subject to any more restrictive or different local requirements and may be altered and amended from time to time to reflect any changes to restrictions or government requirements.</p> <p><strong>Carbon efficient travel</strong><br /> With IBA conferences taking place in major business centres all over the world, travel is an unavoidable reality for our delegates. The IBA encourages its members and delegates to be responsible and conscious of the impact travel has on the environment and to take measures to reduce the carbon impact of their travel.</p> <p>Some suggested steps that delegates can take include:</p> <ul> <li>Travel by train instead of flying if possible.</li> <li>Book direct flights instead of connecting flights, if available, as limiting the number of stops needed will reduce your carbon footprint.</li> <li>Consider the impact of the travel class that you book – business class travel equates to three times the carbon footprint of economy class.</li> </ul> <p>Relying on the local public transport is the more carbon friendly option, but this is not always a realistic option. Where reliance on taxis/cars is needed use electric vehicles over petrol or diesel and share vehicle usage with other delegates and colleagues.</p> </div> </c:if></div><div class="yCmsComponent"> <div class="container"> </div> </div><div class="yCmsComponent"> </div><div class="yCmsComponent"> <c:if test="true"> <div class="container"> <h5><strong>Speaker opportunities</strong></h5> <p>If you would like to be considered as a potential speaker at this specialist conference then please contact the relevant <a href="https://www.ibanet.org/officer/officerList/3014">Chair/Co-Chairs</a> in the IBA <a href="https://www.ibanet.org/unit/Dispute+Resolution+Section/committee/Litigation+Committee/3014">Litigation Committee</a> or <a href="https://www.ibanet.org/officer/officerList/3108">Chair/Co-Chairs</a> in the IBA <a href="https://www.ibanet.org/unit/Regional+Fora/committee/Arab+Regional+Forum/3108">Arab Regional Forum</a> with your request;
