The Coaches
for the Marburg team for the 33rd Vis Moot Court 2025/26 are Ferdinand Gypser and Katharina Harder.

Ferdinand Gypser is in the final stage of his law studies. He participated in the Vis Moot in 2021/22 where he discovered his passion for moot courts and dispute resolution. After participating, he coached the university’s team of the following Vis Moot. Besides that, he worked as a student assistant in an international law firm in their dispute resolution practice where he gained deeper knowledge of arbitration. He is also the chairman of the Verein zur Förderung der praxisgerechten Juristenausbildung an der Philipps Universität Marburg e. V., which supports moot courts and also serves as an alumni network. He is excited to pass on his experience to the next generation and to gain new experiences. Besides his studies, Ferdinand practices martial arts and enjoys cooking with his friends.

Katharina Harder is a law student at University of Marburg and is currently preparing for her final exams. During her Erasmus year at the School of Law at Trinity College Dublin, she deepened her knowledge of international law. Additionally, she participated in the 31st Willem C. Vis Moot Court, where she discovered her passion for arbitration and dispute resolution. The competition not only provided her with valuable insights into the world of international dispute settlement but also inspired her to pass on her experience as a coach to the next moot team.
