Each year, Financier Worldwide names 10 experts to its list of Power Players. For 2025, Partner Glenn R. George was named to this prestigious list of Exceptional Experts in the field of international arbitration (IA).
IA faces evolving geopolitical dynamics, rapid technological advancement, and shifting global trade patterns. As companies and governments navigate increasingly complex cross-border disputes, IA has been playing an important role. Financier Worldwide conducts interviews with the 10 experts—leading advisors from the legal, accounting, and consulting community—who share their stories of working in IA and offer insight into challenges they have encountered.
In his interview, Dr. George addresses several topics. He discusses his experience serving as an expert witness on behalf of Nigeria in its successful effort to overturn an $11 billion arbitration award. He speaks to the significance of that case and its impact on IA generally. In addition, he addresses emerging technologies and developing trends he sees in the IA field, particularly related to the rising demand for electric power from data centers.
