The future of arbitration lies in bridging generations and borders. Join us for an innovative speed networking lunch that brings together junior and senior practitioners from France, the Netherlands, Germany, Belgium, and beyond in a dynamic, topic-focused format.

How It Works:

Experience multiple rounds of focused discussions at topic-specific tables. Each table addresses a compelling issue in international arbitration. Rotate through several topics during the lunch, connecting with diverse practitioners at each stop.

Why Attend:

For Junior Practitioners:

  • Gain insights from experienced practitioners who have navigated the challenges you face
  • Build your professional network across European jurisdictions
  • Explore career pathways and business development strategies
  • Engage with substantive topics in an accessible, conversational format

For Senior Practitioners:

  • Share your expertise and give back to the next generation
  • Gain fresh perspectives on emerging trends and technologies
  • Expand your network with promising junior practitioners
  • Engage in efficient, meaningful networking

This isn’t just networking—it’s knowledge exchange, mentorship, and community building in an efficient, engaging format. The magic of mentorship and networking happens when different generations come together and create richer discussions and more valuable connections.

 

This ICC YAAF event is taking place on the occasion of the ICC Joint Arbitration Day: Perspectives from Belgium, France, Germany & the Netherlands.

 

Venue: Linklaters, Rue Brederode 13, 1000 Brussels, Belgium
