This YAAF event is being organized on the occasion of the 1st Japan International Arbitration Week, taking place in Tokyo from 18th till 22nd November 2024. It will offer networking opportunities for young lawyers, arbitrators, in-house counsel from Japan and beyond.
Building on “The Truth about Cross-Cultural B2B Relationships”, a pioneering study by the International Chamber of Commerce (ICC), Jus Connect and McCann Truth Central, this ICC YAAF event on The Place of Cultural Diversity in Business Interactions and Dispute Resolution will take place in-person on 19th November 2024. The panel will discuss the impact of culture on business decision-making and disputes resolution trends with a focus on interactions from Japanese parties’ perspective and, alternatively, from international parties in a negotiations context.
Our speakers will present a diverse spectrum of views from in-house counsel, academia and private practice.
