ICC YAAF: Level Up: Arbitration in the Gaming and Esports Industry
Join us for an engaging panel discussion on dispute resolution in two rapidly evolving fields: the video gaming industry and competitive esports.
On the commercial side, the gaming industry generates complex cross-border disputes involving IP licensing, technology transfer, publishing and distribution agreements and platform access. On the esports side, the professionalisation of competitive gaming has given rise to its own set of challenges, ranging from player contract disputes and transfer conflicts to prize money claims and the emergence of dedicated arbitration mechanisms devised to resolve these disputes.
Our panelists bring perspectives from both worlds and will explore how international arbitration and other dispute resolution tools are adapting to the realities of this fast-growing sector. Whether you are an arbitration practitioner, involved in technology, media and telecommunications (TMT), or simply curious about this emerging field, this event offers a unique window into the legal landscape of gaming and esports.
Don’t miss this opportunity to connect with peers and experts at the forefront of dispute resolution in one of the most dynamic industries of our time.
Venue: Freshfields, Potsdamer Platz 1, 10785 Berlin.
Dr. Ole Jensen, ICC YAAF Representative for Europe and Central Asia; Managing Counsel, ArbBoutique, Berlin: ole.jensen@arb-boutique.com
