Objection, Your Algorithm: AI Enters the Arbitration Room

Is AI a threat to the arbitration profession or its most powerful new tool? Come and find out. Join us for an informal Vilnius Arbitration Day 2026 pre-event evening co-hosted by VIAC (Vienna International Arbitral Centre) and MOTIEKA, where we skip the pleasantries and get straight to the questions keeping practitioners up at night. We will hear directly from VIAC about what AI is already doing within one of Europe's most innovative arbitral institutions and then open the floor to some of the sharpest minds in international arbitration. Speakers: Patrizia Netal – Partner at KNOETZL, VIAC Vice-President Patrizia Sangalli – Partner at SNG & Partners Wojciech Sadowski – Partner at Queritius; Member of the VIAC International Advisory Board Dr. Ben Steinbrück – Partner at SZA Schilling, Zutt & Anschütz; VIAC Ambassador for Germany Moderator Albertas Šekštelo – partner at MOTIEKA, VIAC CAN ambassador for Lithuania Expect candid views, lively debate, and the kind of conversation that doesn't make it into the conference program.
