Overview
The next session in our Global Antitrust Update webinar series is soon approaching. Our international team will unpack the latest enforcement trends and policy shifts shaping competition law across key jurisdictions.
We’ll begin with a concise transatlantic update on key agency activity and policy shifts, before turning to two timely areas of heightened enforcement focus: (i) the accelerating scrutiny of technology markets and (ii) renewed enforcement attention on “gun jumping” risks in transactions and pre-closing conduct.
Drawing on perspectives from our US and European practitioners, our panel will offer real-world insights to help businesses anticipate enforcement priorities, mitigate transaction risk and navigate increasingly assertive regulatory environments.
Whether you’re advising on strategic transactions, managing competition compliance or monitoring global enforcement trends, this session will provide a focused and practical update on where agencies are concentrating their firepower.
