Global Competition Law Conference: Implementing Competition Law and Policy, Global Perspectives

Date(s) of Conference:

November 18-19, 2010

Location:

Taj Mahal Hotel
New Delhi, India

Description:

The recent adoption of competition law statutes in East and South Asia, culminating with the enactment of the Indian Competition Act and the Chinese Antimonopoly Law, mark a significant development to the global business community. Merger control, the application of competition law to unilateral conduct such as distribution agreements, competition issues in intellectual property rights, and state activities in the economy create important challenges in the enforcement of competition law in these crucial markets for policymakers, multinational corporations, law firms and economic consultancies. A number of panels and roundtables will examine these issues, composed by the international and local leaders of the competition/regulatory law and M&A practice.

The public conference held on 19 November will be preceded by an invitation only one-day workshop held on 18 November on the issue of economic development and competition law, a theme that is of particular importance to the global as well as to the local business community.

Major policy makers, academics and practitioners from around the world will analyze these topics and will share their unique expertise in the area of competition law and more specifically in merger control, evidence in competition law, joint ventures, distribution, cartels, and the interaction between competition and intellectual property.
