Partner Pirkka-Marja Põldvere supported students again at VIS Moot in Vienna
Our partner Pirkka-Marja Põldvere just returned from yet another the Willem C. Vis International Commercial Arbitration Moot in Vienna, where she played an arbitrator for students from universities all over the world, and was a moral support to the team of Tartu University (Estonia). LEADELL Pilv Law Office has supported the Tartu University team for years (i.a. having a practice round at our offices, this year with Pirkka-Marja Põldvere, Marko Pilv and Hendrik Rätsep).
The Willem C. Vis International Commercial Arbitration Moot is a competition for law students to foster the study and practice of international commercial sales law and arbitration. Students from all countries are eligible (students from 88 countries participated in the 30th Vis Moot). The Moot involves a dispute arising out of a contract of sale between two countries that are party to the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods. The contract provides that any dispute that might arise is to be settled by arbitration in Danubia, a country that has enacted the UNCITRAL Model Law on International Commercial Arbitration and is a party to the Convention on the Recognition and Enforcement of Foreign Arbitral Awards. The arbitral rules to be applied rotate yearly among the arbitration rules of co-sponsoring institutions of the Moot.
