ArbDB Chambers Member, John Abbott, has been welcomed as a Senior Fellow of the BIAMC https://baliarbitration.org/ . John is now part of the Titled Membership Program of the BIAMC, one of Asia’s premier membership programs for alternative dispute resolution. The BIAMC is also Indonesia’s only international organization related to dispute resolution and thus clearly stands out in the Asia-Pacific region as a whole. The BIAMC is excited to have John join as a Senior Fellow.
Professor Stephen Hibbert, ArbDB Chambers Member, has joined the Mediation Hub, Dubai Stephen Hibbert - The Mediation Hub , where a number of other Members of ArbDB Chambers are already listed. Stephen also attended the Mediation Summit on 22 January 2026 in Dubai, which was co-organised by the Mediation Hub and the Dubai International Arbitration Centre. Stephen and Fellow ArbDB Chambers Member, Robert Sliwinski, spoke at this event. Stephen is also already a General Member of the BIAMC and all this shows the commitment of ArbDB Chambers to dispute resolution in both the Gulf Co-Operation Region and East Asia.
For information about appointing John, Stephen and Robert as mediators, arbitrators or adjudicators/ dispute board members, please contact the Clerk to ArbDB Chambers, Martin Poulter, on martin.poulter@arbdb.com.
