2009 promises to be a critical year in the development of competition policy as the two senior antitrust enforcement agencies come under new management – the first almost simultaneous changeover in nearly a decade. US President Barack Obama's choice as Assistant Attorney General at the Department of Justice will have far-reaching implications for global antitrust. This conference, presented by GCR and LBR, will present a series of panel discussions on three key topics: abuse of dominance, mergers and antitrust litigation, recognised competition law experts from both sides of the Atlantic will analyse the recent past and take a practical look at where competition enforcement may converge or diverge in 2009 and beyond.
WilmerHale Partners William Kolasky and Christian Duvernoy will be featured speakers at this conference. William will speak on the topic of "Antitrust Litigation - A Model for Europe" and Christian will speak on the topic of "Article 82 and Abuse of Market Dominance - EC vs. US Enforcement Priorities."
