Dear Friends and Colleagues
ADC is thrilled to open nominations for the Australian ADR Awards 2017. The inaugural national Awards in 2016 were a significant milestone for Australian ADR; with the quality of nominations in all categories a testament to Australia’s outstanding practitioners.
Please take a moment to review all categories this year and start preparing your nominations.
If you missed the fabulous Awards Night in 2016, do not miss Michael Kirby’s video clip below. And I encourage you to Save the Date - Thursday, 10 August 2017 - for this year’s ADR Awards dinner!
My warm thanks to all our contributors to this edition of the ADC Bulletin. ADC and our readers are most grateful for your insights and thought leadership.
