10th ICC International commercial mediation competition in Paris.

Fabienne van der Vleugel has participated to the 10th ICC (International Chamber of Commerce) international commercial mediation competition in Paris as mediator for some sessions during the prelimiray rounds and as judge for the 8th and ¼ finale (7-11 February 2015).

The ICC mediation competition brings together students from all over the world – future business managers and lawyers – with professional experienced mediators. This very intense one-week event creates the opportunity for the students to practice and enhance their negotiating power, during multiple professionally handled mediation sessions under ICC competition rules. This ICC competition contributes, for the 10th consecutive year, to strengthen the links between two generations: current practicing mediators and young students, future users of international commercial mediation and future mediators.

It is a very interesting way to learn, to teach, to share experience and to create a vast international network.

“Eight of the 10 most highly regarded individual mediators according to the Who's Who Legal: Mediation 2014 report, participate for example each year in the Mediation Competition” (source : ICC website).
