About Irene Loreto G.

With over 16 years of experience as an independent arbitrator, I bring deep expertise in investment arbitration and public procurement disputes, particularly in the mining and oil & gas sectors. My focus is on delivering fair, efficient, and impartial proceedings, aligned with the highest standards of institutional arbitration rules. I am passionate about contributing to the integrity and development of international arbitration, providing well-reasoned arbitral awards, and fostering collaborative solutions to complex disputes. As an independent arbitrator, I have handled numerous cases administered by arbitration centers in Venezuela and the ICC, with significant exposure to international commercial contracts. My work emphasizes managing intricate evidence and legal submissions, ensuring clarity and precision in every decision. This role is complemented by my academic contributions as a professor of Public Law, further enriching my understanding of constitutional and administrative law.
