The Arbitration Night is a free exchange platform with the theme of arbitration communication, bringing together elites from the domestic and international arbitration community. It also serves as the reception of the China Arbitration Summit. The “Arbitration Night” has built a bridge for arbitration colleagues from different countries to have a cordial conversation and discuss cooperation, in which Chinese and foreign arbitration professionals talk about the key affairs of arbitration practice in the new era, gathering wisdom and strength to promote the development of international arbitration. Since the first “Arbitration Night” was held at the 11th China Arbitration Week in 2023, the three consecutive “Arbitration Night” have attracted the enthusiastic participation  arbitration professionals from many home and abroad including heads of renowned arbitration institutions, arbitrators, lawyers, scholars, professionals from the business circle, etc.

The 14th China Arbitration Week will soon commence. On the eve of the 2026 China Arbitration Summit, when the lights are on, the Arbitration Night will grandly unfold. We sincerely invite colleagues and friends in the arbitration community to attend this event to renew their cherished friendship, talk about the important matters of arbitration, seek cooperation and development, and collectively draw up a blueprint for the future of arbitration industry.
