Proud to share a new chapter authored by Partner Gilad Katz and Adv. Lance Blumenthal from our Litigation (Infrastructure) Department, published in the latest edition of CDR’s “The Belt and Road Initiative 2026.”
The chapter provides an in-depth overview of Israel’s role within the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI), highlighting key infrastructure projects and the evolving legal framework supporting them.
Among the topics covered:
• The strategic alignment between Israel’s multiyear national infrastructure plan and the BRI vision
• Major Belt and Road projects – including the HaDarom Port, the Gulf Port in Haifa, and the Tel Aviv Light Rail system
• The new International Commercial Arbitration Law (2024) and its impact on cross-border dispute resolution
• Bilateral investment treaties and mechanisms for enforcing foreign judgments and arbitral awards
This publication offers valuable insights into how Israel’s infrastructure growth, regulatory developments, and dispute resolution mechanisms position it as a strategic hub connecting Asia, Europe, and Africa.
