COPENHAGEN ARBITRATION DAYTAKING EVIDENCE IN
INTERNATIONAL ARBITRATION
April 4, at Børsen · The Old Stock Exchange
Copenhagen Arbitration Day
After the memorable Copenhagen Arbitration Day was launched last year, The Danish Institute of Arbitration (DIA) and ICC Denmark are delighted to host Copenhagen Arbitration Day 2019.
This year, we are also able to present some very distinguished speakers from the international arbitration environment and a number of leading practitioners from Denmark.
The event takes place in the historical building Børsen (the Old Stock Exchange), situated right in the center of the city of Copenhagen, next to the Danish Parliament and the Supreme Court.
Copenhagen Arbitration Day offers an outstanding opportunity to explore fundamental issues in international arbitration, to network and to be updated on international trends within the field of international arbitration.
International Keynote Speakers
Dinner at Restaurant Søren K: The conference will be followed by a drinks reception and dinner at Restaurant Søren K in the Black Diamond (the Royal Danish Library). The restaurant is named after the famous Danish philosopher Søren Kierkegaard.
During the dinner advokat Georg Lett will deliver a keynote adress on the following question: The Arbitrator shall be and remain Independent and Impartial. Is that an Illusion?
