In this session, Claudia highlighted the occasion of the Centenary of the ICC International Court of Arbitration before diving into the characteristics of arbitral awards in the early days of the Court, the most common issues which arise during the Court’s scrutiny of awards and how arbitral awards may be drafted in the future.

Q2: What aspects of arbitration are ready for AI?

Q3: What do you think are the key issues that need to be considered when using technology?

Q4: About diversity, I notice that the ICC now has an almost 50/50 male/female mix. Is this too fast and too artificial?

Q5: For operating with ICC arbitration, since the publishing of the ICC arbitration rules 2021 in the year of 2021, which part of the arbitration rules 2021 would ICC suggest multi-national companies, future expert witnesses, future party representatives and future arbitrators to pay attention to as per ICC’s observation so far?

Q6: What would ICC like expert witnesses, party representatives, and arbitrators to do (and prepare themselves) in order to operate ICC arbitration in line with ICC’s vision?
