To promote the standardized and healthy development of Shanghai's e-commerce industry, the "2025 E-commerce Law and Related Promotion Training," hosted by the Shanghai Municipal Commission of Commerce, was successfully held from September 24 to 25, 2025. The purpose of this event is to strengthen understanding and implementation of e-commerce-related laws and regulations, and to promote industry self-discipline and compliant operations.
Our senior partner, lawyer Siyuan Zheng, was invited to attend and gave a keynote presentation on the theme "Difficulties and New Models in Dispute Mediation Related to Platform Economy" to member units of the Shanghai Online Shopping Chamber of Commerce.
Lawyer Zheng systematically explained the current status and future of platform economy dispute mediation from five aspects:
- The Challenges of the Times: The Explosion of the Platform Economy and Governance Loopholes
- Dispute Situation and Handling Difficulties: Updating mediation approaches is urgently needed
- Conceptualization and Reconstruction of New Mediation Models
- Typical Case: Mediation Helps Close Cases Efficiently
5. Future Outlook: Platformization, intelligence, rule of law, and internationalization
Lawyer Zheng stated that, against the backdrop of the continuous deepening development of the platform economy, promoting "litigation and mediation diversion" and establishing a four-dimensional mediation mechanism are key methods to improve the efficiency of dispute resolution in the platform economy and enhance the business environment.
Lawyer Zheng's sharing proposed new solutions and models in response to the rapid increase in disputes brought about by the explosion of the platform economy and the weak mediation efforts, which received enthusiastic responses and recognition from the attendees.
We look forward to our firm continuing to leverage its professional strengths, contributing ideas and solutions for the healthy and sustainable development of the platform economy and dispute mediation and resolution, and providing more efficient and precise legal services to enterprises and consumers.
