Conference: 60 years BIICL, 50 years Brussels Regime, 60 years New York Convention

On November 29, 2018, the British Institute of International and Comparative Law will host a conference on "60 years BIICL, 50 years Brussels Regime, 60 years New York Convention." The program is here. Here's the idea:
Not only BIICL celebrates a round birthday, but also the two most important regimes for cross-border cooperation in civil and commercial litigation and arbitration - the Brussels Regime (1968), to which the UK acceded 40 years ago, and the NYC (1958). Time to take stock and assess the effects and benefits of both regimes for citizens, businesses, lawyers and courts, and time to look into the post Brexit future.
