The International Trade and Investment Law Society (ITILS) is a group of students at American University's Washington College of Law (WCL) interested in the field of trade and international investment.  The society has been active in helping sponsor talks and seminars on trade and cross border investments at WCL for several years.  This blog will help showcase these programs and make a more visible communication with trade practitioners and those interested in becoming involved in and understanding the world of trade and investments.  The ITILS also helps to sponsor a team of students to participate in a WTO Moot Competition sponsored and developed by the European Law Students Association (ELSA) each year.
