The event
The European Court of Arbitration invites professionals to the European Court of Arbitration Days in Romania, in Bucharest: a main conference on 27 October, followed by a masterclass on 28 October.
The Days bring together judges, arbitrators, adjudicators and mediators from across Europe to look at how disputes are resolved in specific sectors, and why hyper-specialised arbitrators and arbitration rules dedicated to particular industries matter. They also look at the advantages of Romanian law as lex arbitri and/or lex executionis loci, and at the potential of Romania as a credible regional forum.
The organiser
Established within the European Centre for Arbitration and Mediation, under the patronage of the Council of Europe. The Romania Chapter was set up in 2022 and, since 2024, also covers the jurisdiction of Moldova.
