Although the practice area of international commercial arbitration has flourished within the last decade due to the emergence of a global economy, the existence and availability of training for individuals interested in serving as international arbitrators remains extremely limited. The few programmes that exist are either available only to individuals appointed to panels of arbitrators maintained by arbitral institutions, or are extremely expensive and involve weeks of training, thus making them impractical for most working professionals. Accordingly, the ICC Institute launches its second annual ICC Institute Masterclass for Arbitrators. 

This training will provide participants with an opportunity to reinforce their knowledge of the fundamentals of international commercial arbitration and to learn about the latest developments and best practices related to serving as an international arbitrator. In keeping with its commitment to excellence, the ICC has recruited some of the world’s leading scholars and practitioners as faculty for this important event. Participants will have the rare opportunity to learn firsthand from these leading practitioners and to develop helpful contacts with arbitration practitioners from around the world. The course will consist of presentations and interactive discussions using mock cases designed to hone participants’ understanding of critical theoretical concepts while also emphasizing many practical aspects involved in conducting an international arbitration.

Attendees should understand that the objective of this course is solely to provide training with respect to serving as an arbitrator and completion of the course will not result in students being awarded any type of certification or accreditation by the ICC In terms of their fitness to serve as international arbitrators.

This advanced level training is designed primarily for practitioners who have significant experience in international commercial arbitration as counsel, but who have little or no experience as arbitrators. Attendees are expected to have already mastered the essentials of arbitral proceedings, as these will not be reviewed during the Masterclass. Please note that a Curriculum Vitae is requested upon registration as registrations will be accepted according to the candidate’s experience.

Multi-disciplinary professional gathering for the diagnostic, prevention and treatment of surgical infections

A post-operative infection is a very serious surgical complication, particularly in the field of osteoarticular surgery. It occurs after placement of joint prostheses (hip, knee, shoulder as a result of osteoarthritis) and the use of material made of metal (usually in the case of fractures).

Treatment entails complex multi-disciplinary care (surgeons, anaesthetists, infectious diseases specialists, microbiologists). These treatments are long and costly. The end result is often major functional, familial and professional sequelae, or even death. In other words, prevention of these infections linked to care is fundamental. An enlightened growth of awareness of these infectious accidents by all the stakeholders, including the patients, is required

The success of international business depends on the quality of contracts signed. Negotiating and drafting a contract are skills and techniques that need to be learned, as does managing the "post contract" and dealing with different kinds of conflict resolution. This seminar will focus on the main problems that arise in international contracts and particular attention will be given to avoiding disputes. 

Working methods

• Study of a mock case, reflecting the reality and practices of international business, within working groups limited to roughly 10 participants. The mock case will be sent to participants before the training so that they can read the facts, prepare for working in groups and idetify the contractual issues which will be addresses during the negotiations.
• Technical and practical presentations with international experts.
• Debate amongst participants and speakers during interactive pleanry sessions.

Welcome to the XXth European Days of the French Society of Cardiology. This event was created in 1991 by Professor Mireille Brochier, and this year marks its 20th edition. To celebrate this anniversary, this year’s conference will be very special indeed. On this occasion, a series of “20th anniversary” sessions will give us the opportunity to report not only on the breakthroughs of the last 20 years, but more importantly, on the state-of-the art of cardiology in all its dimensions and disciplines (cardiology, rhythmology and stimulation, heart failure, interventional cardiology, prevention, and imaging). These sessions also aim to design the cardiology of the future through sessions specifically orientated towards the forthcoming innovations in diagnostic and imaging methods, medical equipment, and medication. These sessions reflect the European Days’ ambition to be at the cutting-edge of scientific and medical progress.

During a 4-day period, debates and talks will be organised to present water and its beneficial effects to you as well as to train you on the subject.

They are developing, adapting, modernising, becoming more “design” but nevertheless keep their essential aspect: they give pleasure. The pleasure of playing, discovering, sharing and learning.

For nearly 50 years, the Salon du Jouet et du Jeu has been the showcase for all these developments. This year, it offered professionals one unique diary date in one unique place: the Grand hall at La Villette.

For professionals only!!

The rendezvous for the top echelons of cultural site management

The service providers and equipment suppliers who exhibit at SIMESITEM find the right audience. In fact, they meet the managers of the biggest "classic" cultural institutions such as museums, libraries and archives but also – and increasingly - mediatheques, châteaux, gardens and performing arts with film and festival professionals. And the regional cultural administrations are generally well-represented too.

The SIMESITEM show is a unique event, where players from diverse cultural activities converge. They share common goals and are not boxed in to their individual specialities. A good example of this is the creation of the Trophées ATALANTE , in collaboration with Film France. These are awarded to managers of cultural sites (museums, châteaux etc.) and local authorities for the beneficial relationships they develop with film professionals from cinema and television.

Through its conferences and workshops and by gathering together the broadest spectrum of human and technical skills, SIMESITEM is a measure of the spectacular evolution experienced by the big cultural institutions, major contributors to the status and economy of a country.
