Resilience in Times of Crisis: A Look Beyond New York’s Borders
Program Host: YIAP-NY
When: Thursday, November 19, 2020
8:30 a.m.-9:30 a.m. | 1:30 p.m.- 2:30 p.m. | 4:45 p.m. – 5:45 p.m. ET
In this 3-part series of networking sessions, practitioners will guide discussion on a variety of topics, including:
- What lessons has your jurisdiction implemented from previous crises?
- How has international arbitration in your current jurisdiction adapted to the COVID-19 pandemic?
- Does COVID present more opportunities (e.g., ease and low cost of joining a virtual hearing) or less (e.g. less mentoring, relationship building due to loss of office contact)?
- How have the past months equipped the international arbitration community to anticipate or deal with future crises?
Each One-Hour Session Includes:
Opening Remarks (10 minutes)
Guided Networking (45 minutes)
Closing Remarks (5 minutes)
Schedule of Sessions:
