In September 2018, IP leaders around the globe united to create an outstanding alternative dispute resolution center, chaired by Randall Rader, the former Chief Judge of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit.
IACT’s Advantages—IACT provides key benefits that make arbitration before IACT a desirable path.
1. Highly-regarded forum for technology-related legal matters: IACT has received high reputation in cases related to intellectual property/technical disputes because neutrals (arbitrators and mediators) have handled many important cases involving intellectual property disputes. It is well-suited to resolve disputes over complex technologies.
2. Global coverage: Arbitrators and mediators are selected from major jurisdictions around the globe. The parties may agree to select a neutral(s) for proceedings. Absent the parties’ selection, a neutral(s) will be selected from appropriate jurisdictions.
3. Unparalleled Experience: Many of IACT’s experts have presided over thousands of complicated cases as a judge. Some experts have served as an official in charge of IP matters.
4. Striving for efficiency and speed: Streamline the process and adjust arbitrator hourly rates and billable hours for each dispute, rather than using other commonly used fee amounts, such as a percentage of the amount in dispute. We are trying to achieve cost and time efficiency by defining.
5. Flexibility: Leverage the knowledge and experience of selected neutrals to conduct mediation-arbitration and multi-tiered alternative dispute resolution. If the parties agree, they may retain the opportunity to request a review of arbitration by the supervisory board.
