The 16th Annual WTO Law conference is coming up next week. Formerly a BIICL/IIEL production in London, it has moved to Geneva this year and added the Graduate Institute and the SIEL as organizers. From the conference web page:
The Annual WTO Conference was originally established in 2000 through a partnership between the British Institute of International and Comparative Law (BIICL) and the Institute of International Economic Law (IIEL) at the Georgetown University Law Center. Now in its 16th year, the Annual Conference on WTO Law is currently organised jointly by BIICL, IIEL, the Graduate Institute's Centre for Trade and Economic Integration, and the Society of International Economic Law (SIEL). In 2016, the 16th Annual Conference on WTO Law will be held in Geneva.
