Since 2014, CAM-CCBC has promoted the Congress annually, aiming to address the present and the future ofarbitration, which is the most widely used method for resolving complex commercial disputes.

Traditionally, the event tackles practical aspects of arbitration and its most relevant challenges. Renowned professionals from several nationalities discuss the evolution of arbitration and complex disputes in a constantly transforming commercial scenario.

The eleventh edition of the CAM-CCBC Arbitration Congress, held in October 2024, had over 500 participants and 39 speakers, divided into 6 panels and 2 keynote lectures. The program was specially designed to foster quality debate and networking.
