Bhering Advogados at the 5th CSD-ABPI Moot

Júlia Strack has been invited by the organizing committee of the CSD-ABPI Moot (Dispute Resolution Center of the Brazilian Intellectual Property Association) to serve as an Evaluating Arbitrator at its 5th edition, to be held on August 15–16, 2026, in Rio de Janeiro – ahead of the ABPI Global Innovation and IP Meeting.

The CSD-ABPI Moot is the first arbitration competition in Brazil dedicated exclusively to Intellectual Property. It offers law students and recent graduates an immersive simulation of arbitral proceedings based on a fictional case, reproducing the dynamics of a real arbitration hearing through in-person panels.

This year’s case involves a fictitious dispute between companies in the cosmetics sector, addressing allegations of trademark infringement, trade dress violations, unfair competition, and questions regarding arbitral jurisdiction – subjects directly connected to our firm’s areas of practice.

As an Evaluating Arbitrator, Júlia will join the arbitral tribunal for Panel 8, scheduled for August 15, at 5:15 PM, where she will question the competing teams and later share feedback to support their professional development.
