COPENHAGEN ARBITRATION DAY

The Arbitrator and the Law

April 2, at the House of Industry

Welcome to the COPENHAGEN ARBITRATION DAY 2020

Dear Colleagues,

The Danish Institute of Arbitration (DIA) and ICC Denmark are very pleased to welcome you to the third Copenhagen Arbitration Day.

We are honored to present an interesting program and it is with great pleasure that we thank our speakers, which are some of the most recognized practitioners in the field.The event takes place in the House of Industry - the headquarters of the Confederation of Danish Industry - which is located in the heart of Copenhagen just between the Tivoli Gardens and the Copenhagen City Hall where the vibrant city is mirrored in the ever-evolving color and glass facade of the building.

The Copenhagen Arbitration Day is the central event of the Danish arbitration communi-ty’s calendar as it presents an unequalled opportunity to exchange knowledge on trends within the field of international arbitration and to create and renew a network of colleagues and business contacts in a cozy atmosphere.

The conference will be followed by a drinks reception and dinner at the historical Hotel Scandic Palace. Situated in City Hall Square, it is just a few minutes walk from the conference venue.

During the dinner, the International Arbitrator José Rosell will deliver a keynote address.

The Copenhagen Arbitration Day will be followed by the second annual Nordic Arbitra-tion Day on Friday 3 April 2020, which is a full-day conference organized by the young arbitration practitioners’ associations in the Nordic region.

Finally, we would like to thank our sponsors and the Confederation of Danish Industry for host-ing us. Without you, it would not be possible to organize the Copenhagen Arbitration Day.

With warm regards from the conference chairs,

René Offersen, Member of the ICC International Court of Arbitration Steffen Pihlblad, Secretary-General of the Danish Institute of Arbitration (DIA)
