VIAC Portal

VIAC introduces the VIAC Portal – an online case management platform hosted on HighQ, a cloud-based file sharing and collaboration software operated by Thomson Reuters. The VIAC Portal can be used for all types of VIAC proceedings for communication among the VIAC, the parties, and the arbitrators or other third-party neutrals. On the Portal, a separate case site will be opened for each case.

The VIAC Portal is used to further increase efficiency in VIAC cases, to enable transparency among the parties involved in the proceedings and to meet the constantly growing need of the parties involved for data security, confidentiality and data protection.
