This Symposium is to be organized by the Arab Administrative Development Organization (ARADO), an affiliate of the Arab League. The importance of this Symposium comes at a time when e-commerce is expanding and more Internet websites are being created and registered for companies and establishments. There is also an increase in electronic trading dealings, conclusion of online contracts and delays in fulfilling relevant obligations. The latter resulted in disputes that may be settled away from the local and regional judicial bodies. 

The Symposium aims at achieving a number of objectives. They include; study and analysis of the concept of e-commerce, study and discussion of national legislations of e-commerce, discussion of how to formulate e-commerce contracts, their conditions and terms and shedding light on arising disputes of e-commerce.  

The Symposium covers a number of themes. They include; contracts of traditional and electronic commerce, Arab legislations that govern legal electronic transactions, the legal framework and international regulations of e-commerce and arbitration of disputes arising from e-r commerce contracts.
