ICC’s high-level international conference on “Antitrust enforcement between globalisation and deglobalisation” will take place in Tokyo on 21 July 2023.
This must-attend event for in-house counsel, antitrust lawyers and competition agencies is being organised with support of the French Competition Authority (FCA), the Japan Fair Trade Commission (JFTC), and the Directorate General for Competition of the European Commission (DG COMP).
Join high-level business executives from multinational companies and top-ranking antitrust agency officials from some of the key antitrust jurisdictions in the world as they address current enforcement challenges and trends and spotlight a range of business initiatives in response to them.
Topics will include:
- Antitrust enforcement in the digital sector
- Harmonisation of merger control regulations on a global basis
- New EU regulation on foreign subsidies, and
- The impact of sustainability on competition.
Other topics where a comparative analysis of Japanese, French and European antitrust enforcement policies are also being considered.
