W. K. To & Co.’s Senior Partner Vincent To was invited by the Faculty of Law of the Chinese University of Hong Kong as a guest arbitrator at the 2019 Annual Hong Kong International Commercial Arbitration Pre-Moot on 30 March 2019 (Sat).   

A number of renowned arbitration practitioners and scholars took part in the Pre-Moot as guest arbitrators. Vincent acted as the arbitrator in the moot between the teams from the University of Bucharest, Romania and National Law University, Delhi. Special thanks must go to our Consultant Kenny Chun and Associate Nicole Chan who also attended the event and exchanged ideas with the university students from different jurisdictions.

This annual pre-moot featured international teams consist of students from leading universities across the globe. It aims at offering special international advocacy experience in relation to cross-border business disputes to students, and also preparing them for the Willem C Vis (East) International Commercial Arbitration Moot which is currently holding in Hong Kong and the Vis Moot which will take place in Vienna, Austria in April 2019.

It’s such an honor for our firm’s senior partner to be involved in this international arbitration event and we enjoyed this unique opportunity to interact and share views on international commercial arbitration with fellow legal practitioners, academics and students from around the world.
