Senior International Arbitration Advisor Katia Yannaca-Small was featured in Global Arbitration Review (GAR), The National Herald, and Greek City Times regarding the recent creation of the first Greek Women in International Arbitration Group (GreekWIAG). The group held its first virtual meeting in the summer of 2023 and officially launched during the second edition of the Athens Arbitration Days in October 2023.
Yannaca-Small, former OECD adviser and current lecturer at USC Gould School of Law, is one of the founding members of GreekWIAG. She told GAR that the group was formed to be a "forum and supportive network for experienced, new and aspiring practitioners alike." The group aims to connect, provide mentorship opportunities, and host events for Greek women in the arbitration community. It currently boasts more than 65 practitioners — which include counsel, arbitrators, academics, institutional representatives, government lawyers, and students — based in the Americas, Europe, the Middle East, Africa, and Asia.
