SUMMARY:Cape Town Convention Academic Project – 15th Conference
DESCRIPTION:Cape Town Convention Academic Project – 15th Conference\nInterdisciplinary conference on the Cape Town Convention and Geopolitics\non the 100th anniversary of UNIDROIT and the 25th anniversary of the Cape Town Convention\nWednesday 23rd and Thursday 24th September 2026 | Robinson College\, Cambridge\nSave the Date\n  \n \nThe 15th Cape Town Convention conference will be held on Wednesday\, 23rd and Thursday\, 24th of September 2026. It will be held at Robinson College\, Cambridge as an in-person conference\, but also with the opportunity to join virtually for anyone who is not able to join in person. \nThis is a special year for the Cape Town Convention and for the conference. It is the 100th anniversary of UNIDROIT and the 25th anniversary of the CTC. The conference will be an interdisciplinary consideration of the CTC in the light of geopolitics. As an international treaty which generates economic benefit by the legal certainty it creates\, the extent to which the operation of the CTC can be affected by the geopolitical situation is a matter of great significance\, and merits discussion by experts in many subjects and disciplines. \nThe conference will bring together experts in law\, international studies\, economics and business\, from academia\, practice and industry\, to discuss the CTC and treaty compliance in the light of international relations\, game theory\, international law\, law and economics and financial sectors that are comparable to asset finance. As usual\, there will be plenty of time for questions and discussion from the floor. There will be a dinner on Wednesday evening at Selwyn College. \n  \nPlease save the date and await further information on the conference and instructions for booking. \n  \nWe look forward to welcoming you in Cambridge (or online) for what promises to be yet another excellent and inspiring conference. \n  \nYours Sincerely\, \n  \nProfessor Louise Gullifer K.C. (hon) FBA \nProfessor Ignacio Tirado \nProfessor Jeffrey Wool
