PAW Board

The PAW Board is composed of the four founding institutions and the PAW Organising Committee, composed of passionate, dedicated arbitration practitioners.

Together, they strive all year to make PAW a unique and unforgettable event.

  1. Ensuring that PAW continues to evolve and innovate as a world-leading arbitration event;

  2. Organising PAW’s flagship events—such as the Opening Keynote and Cocktail, the PAW In-House Event, the Sustainability Event, the Young Arbitration Cruise, and the Closing Cocktail—and coordinating with PAW Partners;

  3. Promoting PAW’s core values at all times: diversity, inclusivity, and sustainability.
