The Cambridge Arbitration Day brings together scholars, practitioners, and students for a discussion on recent developments in the field of international arbitration. This year’s event on 18 March 2017 was titled 'Winds of Change: Rethinking the Future of International Arbitration'.

The main conference was preceded by a Young Practitioners’ Event organized in association with the ICC Young Arbitrators Forum (YAF) on 17 March 2017. This event was aimed at encouraging young practitioners to exchange professional experience and create a network that strengthens relationships within the young arbitration community.
