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).

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.
