As arbitration evolves, specialized tribunals have emerged to meet the distinct needs of industries ranging from sports and art to maritime commerce, competitive video gaming, and intellectual property. These forums combine subject-matter expertise with tailored procedures, raising questions about efficiency and the future architecture of dispute resolution.
Join us for a discussion that will bring together practitioners and institutional leaders to explore how these specialized arbitral bodies developed.
