Istanbul Arbitration Days

The program details of the Istanbul Arbitration Days event, which will be held for the first time by the Istanbul Arbitration Centre on 18-20 April 2024, have been announced.

Commencing on 17 April with a "black-tie" themed opening at Pera Palace Hotel with exclusive participants, Istanbul Arbitration Days offers a unique opportunity for both academic studies and networking in historical and modern venues of Istanbul.

On 18 April, at Çırağan Palace Kempinski, with the presentations of prominent domestic and international arbitration lawyers from Türkiye and all around the world, the participants will have the opportunity to learn about "Procedures and Principles in Arbitration", "In-House Counselling in International Arbitration", "Recent Trends in International Dispute Resolution" and "Technology and Arbitration", "State Disputes", "Construction Arbitration".

In the evening of the same day, the event will host special invitations and dinners, including the major social event, Law Rocks at Soho House Istanbul, where bands consisting of lawyers will take the stage.

On 19 April, panels on "New Trends in International Arbitration", "Recognition and Enforcement", "Green Arbitration", "International Sanctions and Arbitration", "Energy Disputes" will be held throughout the day with the contribution of foremost professionals on the national and international scene. In the evening, the panels will be concluded in the magic of the Basilica Cisterns.

The event is anticipated to unlock unparalleled opportunities for participants of the event and to be instrumental in many national and international collaborations, as it is both academically nourishing and creates immense opportunities for networking.

On the morning of 20 April, the last day of the event, "Inspiring Women" and "Women Leaders" panels will be held at Emily's Garden, one of Istanbul's renowned venues, followed by a "Networking Brunch" to enable the participants of these panels to come together and build connections.

In the second half of the day, Turkish cuisine will be served at Emily's Garden. The participants will be treated to a delightful closing ceremony accompanied by a meal.

This enjoyable day with a sincere atmosphere will be an integral part of the vision of Istanbul Arbitration Centre and ultimately the event, which is to achieve gender equality and equal opportunities.

The event also encompasses valuable social responsibility projects. All ticket proceeds from the Law Rocks concert will be donated to the UN Foundation to help children affected by the earthquake. The event's tree planting projects related to sustainability are also noteworthy.

This event, which will demonstrate Istanbul's potential for dispute resolution in the international arena and will become an annual meeting point for numerous lawyers worldwide, draws attention with its high participant profile, especially in-house lawyers / legal advisors of leading national and international companies, lawyers / consultants working in law firms based in Türkiye and abroad, and faculty members of universities in Türkiye and abroad.

It is worth mentioning that the intense attention that Istanbul Arbitration Days has attracted in its promotional phase is the achievement of a great team formed by the Istanbul Arbitration Centre.
