To celebrate the beginning of a new educational journey, the ICAL Alumni Association organized a welcome event for the students of the current edition of the LL.M. in International Commercial Arbitration Law (ICAL) at Stockholm University.

Current students and alumni were warmly welcomed by Marijn de Ruysscher on behalf of the ICAL Alumni Board, and the event was hosted by Vinge, whose partner James Hope delivered an engaging keynote speech on career opportunities as a foreign lawyer.

As an ICAL alumna herself, our partner Jurgita Petkutė joined Kateryna Lazarchuk, Ewelina Wętrys, and Jonas Toll for a lively panel discussion on Careers in Arbitration, moderated by Maria Teder. The discussion was a wonderful reminder of how diverse career paths in international arbitration can be and that ICAL community is an incredible source of support, encouragement, and inspiration.

We wish the new generation of ICAL students every success as they embark on this exciting year of learning and discovery!
