Lagos is set to host judges, attorneys-general, arbitration practitioners and business leaders from more than 30 countries for the 10th edition of the ICC Africa Conference on International Arbitration and Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR).
The conference, organised by ICC Nigeria under the International Chamber of Commerce (ICC), will take place from June 3 to 5, 2026, at the Lagos Continental Hotel.
Themed, “A Decade of Excellence: Shaping the Future of International Arbitration and ADR in Africa,” the event will bring together local and international participants to discuss the evolving landscape of dispute resolution across Africa and beyond.
Speaking at a pre-conference media briefing in Lagos, Dorothy Udeme Ufot, SAN, chair of the ICC Nigeria Arbitration and ADR Commission, said Nigeria’s emergence as host country underscores its growing reputation in international commercial arbitration.
“This is a landmark edition of the ICC Africa Conference and many countries wanted to host it. Nigeria was selected based on the confidence ICC has in our ability and the success of previous conferences hosted here,” she said.
