68th Antitrust Virtual Spring Meeting–April 17-May 1, 2020 Online

April 13, 2020 by Robert Connolly Leave a Comment

Starting April 17th the Antitrust Section’s Spring Meeting will take place via Podcasts, videocasts, live streams, and virtual receptions.

No registration is required and it is free to the global competition, consumer protection, and data privacy communities regardless of whether a member of the Antitrust Law Section (but, of course, the Section would love to have non-members join and contribute to the global work of the Section).

The full agenda, and directions on how to access the program, are available in the Virtual Spring Meeting Brochure.  https://www.americanbar.org/groups/antitrust_law/

These are just a few of the programs that caught my eye for the first week (of two):

We will miss our Spring Meeting in-person community this year.

Section community goes far beyond Spring. Our Section is deeply engaged throughout the year and offers extensive programming, committee engagement, leadership opportunities, mentorship, and networking. Please join us to hear first-hand the perspectives and experiences of Section leaders and why they are “all in”:

I have gone to the Antitrust Section’s Spring Meeting for as long as I can remember.  It has out grown several hotels (and I, many suits) since I first started going.  It used to be the big law firms had the best parties—until the economist took over.  It has changed.  Always great, and each year a little better.  I look forward to next year’s in person meeting.  To join the Antitrust Section of the American Bar Association, check out this link.   https://www.americanbar.org/groups/antitrust_law/membership/.

Thanks for reading.   Bob Connolly  bob@reconnollylaw.com

The US Supreme Court has called cartels "the supreme evil of antitrust." Price fixing and bid rigging may not be all that evil as far as supreme evils go, but an individual can get 10 years in jail and corporations can be fined hundreds of millions of dollars. This blog will provide news, insight and analysis of the world of cartels based on the many years my colleagues and I have as former feds with the Antitrust Division, USDOJ.
