Conference

26 February 2023

From 22-26 February, the Free University of Tbilisi in Georgia hosted three events to prepare law students from Armenia, Azerbaijan, and Georgia to compete in the annual Willem C. Vis International Commercial Arbitration Moot.

The initiative began with two days of training and practical sessions. This was followed by a one-day conference on current issues in commercial arbitration. During the last two days, students had the opportunity to train the skills they had acquired during the 12th Tbilisi Vis Pre-Moot competition. Maciej Durbas, PhD, partner and co-leader of the KKG Arbitration Practice, shared his arbitration experience as a coach, speaker, and juror.

The event was organised by the U.S. Department of Commerce Commercial Law Development Program (CLDP) in cooperation with Arbitration Initiative Georgia.
