Join us for this year’s edition of the ICC YAF & YAAP conference, traditionally taking place during the Willem C. Vis Moot.
Taking place as a hybrid event both in Vienna and online, the conference will:
- tackle the hot-button issue of whether arbitral tribunals have the duty to apply mandatory norms in arbitration also against the will of the parties, and
- provide a fresh perspective on the multiple facets of the application of the CISG in international arbitration.
In addition, the winners of the ICC YAF's "Call for Ideas" will present their winning contributions exploring innovative ideas on international arbitration.
As always, this ICC YAF & YAAP event will be an ideal forum for young practitioners to exchange knowledge, share their experiences and expand their network.
Who should attend?
- Students interested in arbitration – all mootees are welcome !
- Academics
- Lawyers specialised in dispute resolution or interested in arbitration
- In-house counsel
