The Association of Family Business Entrepreneurs (AFBE) invited IAS Advisory co-founding partner Mr Anuwat Ngamprasertkul to appear as a speaker for the session, “Managing and preventing conflicts in family businesses before they escalate.”
A variety of topics were shared and discussed in closed group sessions at the event tailored according to each participant’s needs, including family business organisations, holding companies, business succession plans and methodologies, as well as fraud prevention mechanisms.
The event, which was held for the benefit of both members and non-members of the AFBE, took place on 22nd June 2023.
Co-founding partner Mr Anuwat Ngamprasertkul was privileged to join the committee for selecting teams at this year’s National Mediation Competition.
The event was held at the Thailand Arbitration Center (THAC) in Bangkok and took place over three days from 25-27th January 2023.
Competition now in its fifth year
The competition, now in its fifth year, is organised by THAC and involves simulations of commercial disputes to encourage and inform Thailand’s next generation of mediators and negotiators.
The event provides an excellent opportunity for 2nd, 3rd and 4th year degree students to participate in a mediation from start to finish and for teams to get experience of the whole mediation process, from gathering initial viewpoints, to focusing on interests, to creating win-win options, to evaluating possibilities, to outlining a valid compromise agreement.
It also provides an opportunity for young mediators and negotiators to showcase their skills, connect with peers, and pick up new mediation and negotiation techniques.
It was an honour for IAS Advisory co-founding partner Mr Anuwat Ngamprasertkul to join the recent Thailand Arbitration Center (THAC) course at Bhiraj Tower as a co-speaker together with Ms Noppramart Thammateeradaycho (partner) and Ms Suruswadee Jaimsuwan (counsel) from Tilleke & Gibbins.
The course, on 16-17th January 2023, was titled, “Ending organisational conflict: negotiation and conciliation techniques for settling disputes.”
