ICC YAAF: Level Up: Arbitration in the Gaming and Esports Industry

Join us for an engaging panel discussion on dispute resolution in two rapidly evolving fields: the video gaming industry and competitive esports. The gaming industry generates complex cross-border disputes involving IP licensing, technology transfer, publishing and distribution agreements, and platform access. Meanwhile, the professionalisation of competitive gaming has given rise to its own set of challenges, including player contract disputes, transfer conflicts, and prize money claims. This event will explore how international arbitration and other dispute resolution tools are adapting to the realities of this fast-growing sector. Our panelists bring perspectives from both worlds and will discuss the unique legal landscape of gaming and esports. Whether you are an arbitration practitioner, involved in technology, media and telecommunications (TMT), or simply curious about this emerging field, this event offers a unique window into the legal challenges and opportunities in one of the most dynamic industries of our time. Don’t miss this opportunity to connect with peers and experts at the forefront of dispute resolution in gaming and esports.
