Russian Arbitration Day is a unique event aimed at the development of international commercial arbitration on post-soviet space. This purpose is also proved by the format of the conference and the procedure for speakers selection. The first Russian Arbitration Day (RAD) took place in 2013 with the initiative of Roman Khodykin, Anton Asoskov and Aleksandr Muranov, and with the support of the International Commercial Arbitration Court and Maritime Arbitration Commission of the Chamber of Commerce and Industry of the Russian Federation. RAD’s conceptual foundation enabled it to establish itself as a promising venue to exchange fresh ideas and discover new names in the Russian arbitration.
