On the 9th of November ICC Albania with the support of the Embassy of the Netherlands in Albania organised an ICC YAF forum entitled “How to become an arbitrator: Challenges and Opportunities”.
This event took place in Tirana and was attended by young professionals and practitioners, attorneys, academics and also students with a particular interest in arbitration.
During the event the successful arbitrators on both panels shared useful insights, their experience in this field and also tackled the main duties and challenges that an arbitrator shall take into consideration in order to perform his/her duties.
