Presenting research at the Annual YANIL Research Workshop and IEAF
YANIL organizes several research webinars and workshops. The main event is the Annual YANIL Research Workshop on Restructuring and Insolvency Law. The workshop provides a forum for early career restructuring and insolvency academics to present their (ongoing) research to peers and also to experienced academics. After the presentations, there is ample time to engage in thriving discussions and get useful feedback, input, and advice on the research. It is typically a one-day workshop organised the day prior to the annual IEAF conference.

Furthermore, YANIL members are invited to present at the annual IEAF conference, giving postgraduate students, PhD candidates and early career researchers the opportunity to present their research amongs distinguished insolvency scholars and practitioners. This is an excellent opportunity to receive valuable feedback on your research. Click here for more information on the INSOL Europe Academic Forum
