Global Arbitration Review (GAR) is hosting their third edition of the GAR Live: Civil Law Summit, designed as a premier global platform for practitioners to examine the growing influence and continued evolution of civil law traditions in international arbitration.

Co-chaired by Diana Paraguacuto-Mahéo and Philippe Pinsolle, the 1.5-day conference will feature leading voices from across civil law jurisdictions, offering practical insights, expert analysis and forward-looking discussions on some of the most pressing issues facing international arbitration today.

The programme addresses a range of topical issues, including force majeure in times of geopolitical crisis, the role of arbitral institutions, artificial intelligence in arbitration, document production and disclosure, arbitration reform, and the continuing interaction between civil and common law traditions. Participants will also benefit from interactive formats, audience-driven discussions and extensive networking opportunities with practitioners from around the world.

With speakers and ambassadors representing leading firms, arbitral institutions and chambers across Europe, Asia, the Middle East and the Americas, the Summit has established itself as a key meeting point for the international civil law arbitration community.
