On December 15, 2022, two members of the VICI team, Adriani Dori and fellow Masood Ahmed, delivered online presentations at the 2nd Procedural Law Unit Annual Symposium organised by the School of Law at the University of Nicosia in Cyprus. The event was dedicated in memory of the late Professor Konstantinos Kerameus, one of the most emblematic and influential figures of civil procedural law in Greece. The conference centred around the broader theme “European Civil Procedure After Brexit: delays and need to speed-up, technology in justice and ADR”, attracting the participation of academics and policymakers from across Europe.

Adriani participated in the panel discussing EU cross-border transactions, their challenges, potentials, and solutions. Titled “Challenging Borders through EU Convergence: Unexplored Potentials of Integration Policies”, her presentation delved into the soft-law mechanisms developed within the European Area of Freedom, Security, and Justice (AFSJ) to harmonise Member States’ procedural and justice systems. Masood contributed to a panel focusing on new technologies and their intersection with civil procedure and ADR. His presentation, titled “[A]DRand Digitization within the Civil Justice System of England and Wales”, shed light on the legal, practical, and policy challenges associated with these domains in the UK system.
