DIS40 Nord - Northern European Workshop in Helsinki

DIS40-Event

28. Aug 2025

Organizer: DIS40 Nord, YAC, YACF, YAPN, YAS

We are thrilled to invite you to the upcoming Northern European Workshop, taking place on 28–30 August 2025, this year in Helsinki, following last year’s iteration in Hamburg.

The Young Arbitration Club Finland (YACF), the German Initiative of Young Arbitrators North (DIS40 Nord), the Young Arbitration Practitioners Norway (YAPN), the Young Arbitrators Copenhagen (YAC), and Young Arbitrators Sweden (YAS) are co-hosting a seminar and workshop to foster the international exchange among younger arbitration practitioners in an informal and interactive setting with the aim of providing practical knowledge for the participants.

We will discuss best practises in advocacy throughout the lifecycle of an international arbitration to learn best practises and to map possible cultural differences and similarities in practising international arbitration in the Nordics. We will seek insight into whether there is a Nordic approach to practising international arbitration and what may be its advantages. In addition to engaging discussions, we will have ample opportunity to get to know each other and have fun.

Please find the invitation with further details on the event and key practicalities.

We look forward to welcoming young arbitration practitioners to Helsinki for an exciting program of workshops, networking, and social events. In the meantime, please register and get ready to secure your spot!

See you in Helsinki!
