15th Annual Middle East Willem C. Vis Pre-Moot

The Middle East Vis Pre-Moot seeks to bolster the inclusion and competitiveness of MENA teams in the annual Willem C. Vis International Commercial Arbitration Moot. Organized by BCDR in partnership with the Commercial Law Development Program of the US Department of Commerce and the Center for International Legal Education of the University of Pittsburgh, among others, the Middle East Vis Pre-Moot is an unmissable seedbed for budding dispute resolution leaders in the region. At the event, teams of law students test their skills in simulations of real-life cases and are assessed by renowned specialists in the field, whose advice and encouragement are invaluable to the students’ future development. The moot provides essential training for the annual Vis Moot in Vienna, Austria and Hong Kong.

The 15th Annual Middle East Willem C. Vis Pre-Moot will take place at ADGM in Abu Dhabi from 3–7 February 2025.

Team registration deadline is 10 January 2025
