Cross-border acquisitions in high-growth, innovation-driven sectors – such as AI, digital infrastructure, cryptocurrency, fintech, social media, and clean energy – frequently involve significant pricing uncertainty at closing. Dealmakers manage these risks through earnouts, milestone structures, detailed technical warranties, and Warranty & Indemnity (W&I) insurance. When transactions fail to perform, the resulting disputes test both legal frameworks and financial models. The complexity of these issues underscores the importance of collaboration among legal counsel and industry and financial experts in navigating post-closing disputes.
The session covers the full life cycle of a post-closing dispute: from drafting dispute clauses and selecting the arbitral seat, to navigating interim injunctions, parallel W&I claims, causation, and complex valuation models.
