The 27th ICCA Congress, taking place in Madrid, Spain from 12–15 April 2026, is the world’s premier international arbitration conference. The event brings together arbitrators, mediators, lawyers, corporate counsel, and academics for keynote speeches, panel discussions, workshops, and networking opportunities, exploring the theme ‘International Arbitration: Local, Global or Both?’

This year’s theme highlights how the legal function is facing major disruption, driven by growing regulatory demands, rising costs, shifting talent models, and the rapid impact of AI. As full-time roles increasingly give way to fractional counsel, routine work is outsourced or automated, ESG reporting becomes higher-stakes, and junior career pathways shrink due to efficiency-driven technology, legal teams are being pushed to rethink how they operate and what their role will look like in the future.

Over two days of expert-led discussions and cross-disciplinary insight, this conference will examine the questions most conferences avoid: when AI becomes a legal obligation rather than a choice, whether compliance regimes are designed to protect or entrap, and what value a lawyer retains when machines can out-draft, out-research and out-analyse them.
