Arbitration Battle 2.0: Team Russia v. Team World will take place during SPBILF 2018. The event will be organized by the Russian Arbitration Center at the Russian Institute of Modern Arbitration.
Arbitration Battle: ILF v. RULF organized by the RIMA last year during SPBILF 2017 enjoyed a great success among the participants of the Forum.
This time a team of Russian lawyers will face a team of lawyers from around the world. The teams will discuss a mock international dispute related to a construction of a football stadium for the World Cup. During the mock arbitration the teams will present their submissions on jurisdictional matters as well as on the merits of the dispute. The leading Russian and foreign practitioners will act as arbitrators.
The teams are expected to demonstrate the best of their strategical and advocacy skills. The lawyers’ game is no less fascinating than the one of Neymar or Messi! Prepare football chants and slogans!
The case file is available here.
