We cordially invite you to the DIS Autumn Conference 2026 in Berlin for a day of critical reflection, practical insight and candid debate about ‘Geopolitics and Defense – Arbitration in Times of Rearmament’.
For further information, please refer to the programme.
The defence sector is experiencing significant growth globally, driven by rising geopolitical tensions, increased NATO defence spending commitments, and expanding cross-border procurement. As defence contracts grow in scale and complexity – and as more states and private entities engage in international arms trade and defence cooperation – disputes inevitably arise. International arbitration has become a natural forum for resolving many of these disputes, but the defence sector raises unique challenges that distinguish it from arbitration in other industries.
Join us for a day of critical reflection, practical insight and candid debate – featuring leading voices from international arbitration, defence industry, government and NATO.
For further information and registration, please refer to the programme, please visit the event website.
The DIS Autumn Conference is the cornerstone of the Berlin Dispute Resolution Days. In addition, the Berlin days will include ‘Berlin Calling: Celebrate the DIS Office Relaunch’, the ‘Karl-Heinz Böckstiegel Lecture’, the ‘DIS40 Autumn Conference’, and numerous further events across Berlin.
We look forward to meeting you in Berlin soon!
Your DIS Team
