SVAMC-Y: Mauricio Duarte, Nathan Aduddell, Viktor Rykov The tech-industry is one of the fastest industries across the globe.  From AI, to Crypto, to how we live and work. Technology is every where!  And where there is interest, there are also disputes, in particular, arbitration!  On this week’s episode we welcome Mauricio Duarte, Nathan Auddell, Viktor Rykov and (Me)  - leaders of the SVAMC-Y to talk about their experience in tech and importantly, what is going on with the organization.
