Young SIAC (YSIAC) Advocacy Workshop

The YSIAC Advocacy Workshop is an arbitration training workshop based on a hypothetical case scenario, and is designed to hone the advocacy skills of young arbitration practitioners. The case scenario concerns a dispute over the construction of a nuclear power plant, and the contract in question provides for disputes to be referred to arbitration in Singapore under the SIAC Rules.

The Workshop programme features mock cross-examination of factual witnesses by up-and coming as well as experienced arbitration practitioners. The mock cross-examination will be followed by a panel session. Participants will be sent the case scenario and relevant preparatory material in advance.
