The 15th Cape Town Convention conference will be held on Wednesday, 23rd, and Thursday, 24th of September 2026. It will be held at Robinson College, Cambridge, as an in-person conference, but also with the opportunity to join virtually for anyone who is not able to join in person.
This is a special year for the Cape Town Convention and for the conference. It is the 100th anniversary of UNIDROIT and the 25th anniversary of the CTC. The conference will be an interdisciplinary consideration of the CTC in the light of geopolitics. As an international treaty which generates economic benefit by the legal certainty it creates, the extent to which the operation of the CTC can be affected by the geopolitical situation is a matter of great significance, and merits discussion by experts in many subjects and disciplines.
The conference will bring together experts in law, international studies, economics and business, from academia, practice and industry, to discuss the CTC and treaty compliance in the light of international relations, game
theory, international law, law and economics and financial sectors that are comparable to asset finance. As usual, there will be plenty of time for questions and discussion from the floor.
The conference will take place in the Crausaz Wordsworth Building, Robinson College, Adams Road, Cambridge CB3 9AN. There will be a conference dinner at Selwyn College on the evening of the 23rd of September.
Refreshments during the two days of the conference and the conference dinner are included in the conference fee of £350 for in-person attendance. There is a fee of £160 for online attendance.
Fees are waived for students, academics who cannot obtain funding from their institution and government officials. If you are eligible for a fee waiver, please use this code: CTAC2026. You will have to self-certify that you fall into the relevant category.
