Welcome

The aim of the Institute is to stimulate and provide a focus for academic and applied research in Commercial Law in the broad sense and thus to contribute to the development of a body of knowledge about, and understanding of, Commercial Law.

We welcome visiting scholar applications

Scope of Work

The Institute is interested in all aspects of research into commercial law, including doctrinal, applied, socio-legal and empirical. "Commercial Law" is defined broadly for our purposes, to include most, if not all, aspects of the law relating to commercial and business activity.

Events

The Institute of Commercial Law Studies hosts a seminar series every year as well as workshops and conferences on research areas that are relevant to current commercial law issues for both researcher and practioners.
