ICC YAAF: Beyond the Vis Moot – Soft Skills for Future Arbitration Practitioners
Join us in Florence for an ICC YAAF event, organized on the occasion of the Florence Vis Pre-Moot. International arbitration practitioners will share key skills for building a successful career in arbitration.
The goal of this event is to provide moot participants and students with valuable insights on transitioning from theory to practice and preparing for a career in arbitration. We aim to address the essential soft skills required in real-world arbitration practice and offer guidance for young professionals entering the field.
