ACICA Wing Person Initiative
Everyone knows what it is like to walk into an event not knowing a single person. ACICA’s Wing Person initiative, launched in 2023, aims to build confidence and connections by matching arbitration practitioners who are less familiar or just want a boost (ACICA Winged Person) with those in the arbitration community who are more confident with their connections (ACICA Wing Person) to attend events during Australian Arbitration Week together.
Expressions of Interest for the 2025 ACICA Wing Person initiative are now being sought.
Further details on participating in this meaningful program as a Wing Person or Winged Person can be found on the flyer here.
Please register your interest by Friday, 26 September 2025 by:
