We would like to invite you to join law firms and law schools around the world in sponsoring the 2025 Philip C. Jessup International Law Moot Court Competition. Held annually for over 60 years, the Jessup is the world’s largest moot court competition. With over 700 international law students from 150 schools across 100 countries in attendance, the International Rounds represent a unique opportunity to engage a talented and diverse audience around your university's programs.
To help you do so, we are offering four different sponsorship packages. In return for your sponsorship of the Jessup Competition, you will select several different marketing and advertising opportunities at the International Rounds, including Exhibition Tables, Team Packet Inserts, and Program Ads.
