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 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:

​· Niamh Leinwather – Secretary General, VIAC (Vienna International Arbitral Centre)
· Dr. Patrizia Sangalli – Founding Partner, Sangalli Della Moretta & Partners; FCIArb
· Dr. Wojciech Sadowski – Partner, Queritius
· Prof. Dr. Ben Steinbrück – Partner, SZA Schilling, Zutt & Anschütz; Honorary Professor, University of Trier
· 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.
