Clause d'arbitrage échelonnée : entre efficacité et incertitudes (Conférence CAIP-40)

The CAIP-40 conference, organized by the Chambre arbitrale internationale de Paris (CAIP) in collaboration with Teynier Pic, focuses on the intricacies of staggered arbitration clauses. As dispute resolution mechanisms become increasingly complex, these clauses emerge as both essential and challenging tools. The conference will delve into critical issues surrounding their validity, effectiveness, and implementation conditions. Participants will engage in discussions about the consequences of failing to adhere to preliminary steps, the extent to which these mechanisms serve as genuine admissibility conditions, and how to balance legal security with flexibility in drafting such clauses. Experienced practitioners from both advisory and corporate backgrounds will share their insights on these essential questions, highlighting the challenges, risks, and opportunities that arise. The event will take place on Thursday, April 9, 2026, at Teynier Pic in Paris, and will be moderated by Raphaelle Legru, a Senior Associate at Wordstone Dispute Resolution. Attendees can look forward to a stimulating exchange of ideas, followed by a cocktail reception to foster networking and further discussion.
