The I World Summit on Business Mediation has designed a program made up of conferences, workshops and tables of successful business experiences in the search for solutions to different conflicts that arise in business activity in its relationship with the other agents and groups of interest that are part of the ecosystem business.
The contents of the Summit will address three significant issues whose transversal axis will be Alternative Dispute Resolution Mechanisms (MASC) and mediation for cooperative conflict management.
