Arbitration stands on a legacy of excellence — shaped by expertise, trust, and a strong sense of purpose. What excites me about VIAC CAN is the momentum: fresh energy, bold ideas, and new voices coming together to expand the conversation. As an ambassador for Slovenia, where arbitration is still gaining visibility, I see a huge opportunity to spark curiosity and build bridges. There’s so much potential in widening the circle — and I’m here for it.
