National courts or arbitration? Recently, the sporting world has seen some arbitration procedures challenged by the Brussels Court of Appeal: Why and how? How effective will this be? What impact will it have on the legal certainty for athletes, federations, and their lawyers?

Does new technology contribute to cheating, or does it expose the cheaters? From swimsuits, to data collection, to miniaturised motors in bicycles, science optimises performance. At high-level competition, the smallest advantage can lead to victory. Could new technology also fight against doping or abuse that leads to skewed results?

Internationally recognised specialists will discuss these exciting topics by exploring the issues raised and sharing their solutions.

Welcome to Paris where AIJA offers you an exceptional selection of working sessions and social events. During the Bâtonnier’s Ball * you will have the opportunity to see the magnificent Court of Justice in its most beautiful light. The seminars will be held in the Court’s library, in the heart of the Ile de la Cité, an extraordinary location steeped in history and justice.

* Limited places available
