ILTA India - Online Dispute Resolution: Lessons the World Can Learn from India

When:  Mar 19, 2026 from 13:30 to 14:30 (UTC)

India is quietly running one of the world's most ambitious experiments in justice technology — and it's working.

 

Courts here carry a backlog of over 45 million pending cases. Rather than waiting for the system to catch up, a new generation of founders, lawyers, and technologists built something different: Online Dispute Resolution platforms that resolve commercial disputes in weeks, not years, for a fraction of the cost.

This is that story. And there are lessons in it for everyone.

Join ILTN and ILTA for a free-flowing roundtable with four of India's most influential ODR voices — spanning platform innovation, international arbitration, policy advocacy, and justice reform. The conversation will be honest, energetic, and global in its implications.

What we'll cover

  •  How India's ODR ecosystem scaled from a handful of startups to a SEBI-mandated infrastructure for securities disputes
  • What AI is actually doing inside dispute resolution platforms today — and what it can't do yet
  • The regulatory and legislative moves that made (or nearly broke) the sector
  • Whether India's model is exportable — and what other jurisdictions need to adapt it
  • Where the next frontier is: vernacular access, small-claims, international arbitration
