The ALSINC experience, in their words.

Hear from ALSINC 2025 participants about their negotiation experience, professional feedback, international exposure and memories from the competition.

Participating in ALSINC 2025 was a truly memorable experience for our team. As first-time negotiators, we stepped into something completely new, unsure of what to expect, but from the very beginning, the competition created a space where we felt comfortable learning, experimenting, and growing together.

What made ALSINC so special was how it balanced challenge with support. Each round pushed us to think on our feet and step outside our comfort zones, but at the same time, it felt like a safe space to try, make mistakes, and improve.

“ALSINC isn’t just about competing, it’s about discovering your potential and growing into it.”

Mahiru, Thisuni & Ameena Royal Institute of Colombo · Team A Winners · ALSINC 2025

ALSINC 25 was an amazing experience for me both personally and professionally. I got to meet incredible arbitrators who guided me beyond the competition, and their feedback really helped me for my future.

The venue in Sri Lanka made everything feel lighter and less stressful, turning the whole experience into something truly enjoyable. The organising committee was incredibly kind and supportive.

“I truly think every law student should experience ALSINC at least once.”

Ritikaa HR Damodaram Sanjivayya National Law University, Visakhapatnam · Team A 1st Runners-Up · ALSINC 2025

ALSINC 2025 was an incredible experience for my first negotiation competition. The problems were engaging and it was really fun to exchange ideas with our competitors during the rounds.

I would definitely encourage anyone who wants to try their hand at negotiating to join ALSINC, as the judges give very useful feedback and it’s a wonderful way to develop your negotiation skills!

Samadrita Sen National University of Singapore · Team A 2nd Runners-Up · ALSINC 2025

ALSINC 2025 was the first international negotiation competition I had ever participated in, and I’m so glad I did.

The competition provided me with exposure not just to negotiation as a skill, but also to diverse cultures and perspectives from participants and assessors across the globe. Every interaction felt like a learning experience which has helped me grow both personally and professionally.

“It would leave you with both lessons and memories that would last a lifetime.”
