The Commercial Arbitration Center Congress returned in 2026 for its 19th edition!
The Commercial Arbitration Center of the Portuguese Chamber of Commerce and Industry held its 19th Annual Congress on 2 and 3 July 2026.
Over two days, this initiative, which has become a key event in the calendars of both the CAC and Portugal’s arbitration community, brought together leading national and international experts to discuss trends, challenges and best practices in commercial arbitration.
The Congress provided an opportunity for participants to meet, reflect and exchange knowledge in an environment that encouraged dialogue and the continued development of the sector. As in previous editions, the programme included a dedicated Under-40 segment.
We would like to thank all sponsors, speakers and participants who contributed to the success of this initiative.
We are pleased to share some of the highlights from this edition, from the panels and discussions to the informal gatherings and networking opportunities that made the Congress a valuable forum for connection, learning and collaboration.
