Mediation Bombay 2.0, 2021
The second edition of Mediation Bombay 2.0, organised by the Maharashtra National Law University, Mumbai took place from January 27 to January 31, 2021. This year, the team expanded this competition further by taking it across the continent. They chose the name "Meditation Bombay" because even though Mumbai is a city, Bombay is an emotion. It is this emotion that the team sought to tap into. The excitement of industry, the sentiment of collaboration and compromise, the feelingof 'never say die' attitude of every person who has ever lived in this glorious city. It is the culmination of all these sentiments that has resulted in the constant development the team are so proud of and has contributed to Bombay's rise as the financial capital of India. The team's aim was to foster the growth of ADR practices in India and to impact the quality of these practices.
