2nd Annual Young ITA Global Forum

Overview

Presented by Young ITA

Young ITA is thrilled to host the second annual Young ITA Global Forum.

Young ITA practitioners from each of Young ITA’s Regions will be invited to serve as regional delegates in the Global Forum, with each delegate obligated to submit one current procedural issue and one current substantive law or policy issue of key interest in the field of international arbitration in advance. These issues will be debated on the (virtual) “floor” of the Global Forum, with each delegate introducing his or her issue as prompted and moderated by the Global Forum Moderators for each Session.

The Global Forum will be limited to invited Young ITA moderators and delegates (save for a brief introduction from the ITA Chair) and will be held under the Chatham House Rule.

Note to Applicants:

This event is by invitation only, and attendance is capped at 50 delegates.

Places will be confirmed, by email, at latest by February 13, 2023. While any Young ITA member may be selected as a delegate, the selection committee shall give priority to applicants exhibiting the following attributes:

• Young ITA applicants that have served as a Young ITA officer in the past or is currently serving as an officer.
• Young ITA applicants on the ITA Advisory Board.
• Any additional spots shall be filled on a first come first served basis, based on a regional “cap” of 4-5 delegates per Young ITA region.
