Indian arbitration practitioner and NJ Law Chambers Managing Partner Naman Joshi has been appointed to the Core Committee of the Young Practitioners’ Group (YPG) Council of the Asian International Arbitration Centre (AIAC).

Joshi’s two-year tenure officially began on September 7, 2026. As part of the role, he will be involved in shaping the YPG Council’s strategic priorities and supporting the development and execution of its programmes and initiatives.

Joshi To Support AIAC’s Young Arbitration Network

The AIAC, headquartered in Kuala Lumpur, administers international arbitration as well as other alternative dispute resolution mechanisms. Its Young Practitioners’ Group focuses on expanding professional networks across jurisdictions while creating opportunities for emerging arbitration professionals and ADR practitioners.

Joshi, who practises in New Delhi, leads NJ Law Chambers and handles commercial litigation along with domestic and international arbitration matters. His work includes complex commercial disputes and cases involving multiple jurisdictions.

FCIArb Fellow And Arbitration Practitioner

Joshi is a Fellow of the Chartered Institute of Arbitrators (FCIArb), an international professional body headquartered in London that represents practitioners working in dispute resolution.

He attained the Fellowship relatively early in his career and is among the younger Indian arbitration practitioners to hold the FCIArb designation.

His new position with the AIAC YPG adds an international institutional role to his arbitration practice and will involve engagement with young practitioners working across different Asian jurisdictions.

Joshi On His New Role

Welcoming the appointment, the AIAC said it expected Joshi’s experience and enthusiasm to contribute to the YPG’s work and the Centre’s broader objectives.

Joshi said the appointment was an opportunity to contribute to the growth of international arbitration networks in Asia.

“Asia is increasingly central to the development of international arbitration, and institutions such as the AIAC have an important role in bringing together practitioners from different jurisdictions,” he said.

He added that he looked forward to contributing to the YPG’s initiatives and strengthening engagement between arbitration practitioners in India and their counterparts across Asia.
