About the Concordat 2.0: National ADR Competition
CONCORDAT 2.0 aims to go a step ahead of CONCORDAT 2019 and aims to provide a holistic experience of all the forms of ADR to the participants with a fusion of Client Counselling and Negotiation, and Mediation and Arbitration as two formats C-Neg and Med-Arb. The event is spread over three days, wherein participants will not only compete but will be allowed to unwind themselves every evening and enjoy a cultural feast.
Concordat 2.0 is more than just a regular competition. It is an ADR Fest. A competition brings with it anxiety and apprehension.
