ICC YAAF: In conversation with Alexander Fessas
Join us for an interactive session with Alexander Fessas, and Breakfast to kick off the 3rd Italian Arbitration Forum.
Seize this exclusive opportunity to take part in an informal, behind-the-scenes conversation with Alexander Fessas, Secretary General of the ICC International Court of Arbitration and Director of ICC Dispute Resolution Services. In a relaxed and interactive format, Alexander will share insights from his professional journey and offer a first-hand look at how the ICC tackles procedural hurdles in arbitration.
The program will combine a fireside-style interview with Alexander and practical case studies on procedural challenges. Far from a traditional lecture, this session is designed as a dynamic exchange, giving participants direct access to the ICC’s perspective and practical guidance on navigating procedural complexities.
With only a very limited number of spots available, this ICC YAAF event promises to be an exclusive, small-scale gathering—a unique chance to learn from Alexander’s experience, explore best practices in procedure, and expand your network in a truly engaging setting.
