About LCIA Events In addition to the LCIA's dispute resolution services, the LCIA organises a rolling programme of conferences, for which it is renowned. These conferences address the most important and topical issues in the field of arbitration (and ADR) in a unique format. There are no set speakers or speeches. Rather, delegates submit topics for discussion in advance of the conference. These topics are then grouped into themes and allocated to the working sessions, at which delegates are asked to introduce their topic, which is then open for debate, under the expert chairmanship of renowned practitioners in the field. The LCIA conference programme typically includes 18 or 20 events each year, two of which are its flagship symposia, held each spring and summer in the UK. Other conferences are held in venues throughout the world, including now-traditional back-to-back conferences with the International Bar Association.
