ICC YAAF: Facing Forward: Arbitration’s Response to Global Geopolitical Shifts
Join us for a discussion examining the impact of global geopolitical developments on international arbitration and the practical implications for parties, counsel, and tribunals.
Tariffs, sanctions, and geopolitical volatility are redefining the global business environment – and international arbitration is no exception. This ICC YAAF panel will examine how these pressures translate into concrete challenges for arbitral proceedings, from the crystallisation of disputes to enforcement. Drawing on the experience of an international panel of arbitration practitioners, the discussion will focus on practical takeaways and how arbitration can remain effective and resilient in a fragmented world.
Who Should Attend:
- Young Arbitration Practitioners
- Legal Professionals and Law Students
- Regional and Global Practitioners
The event will take the form of a moderated Q&A panel discussion, followed by an interactive exchange with the audience and a networking reception.
Venue: Walder Wyss Ltd., Seefeldstrasse 123, Zurich, Switzerland
