Second Annual Antitrust & Tech Conference: Reinvigorating Antitrust Enforcement in Digital Markets: Issues & Prospects
Webinar | 12.08.20, 5:00 AM EST - 8:00 AM EST
Can current antitrust enforcement tools address the increasing prominence of digital markets? How might proposed antitrust policy reforms affect digital markets and the enforcement agencies?
Please join us for the Second Annual Antitrust & Tech Conference co-hosted by the George Washington University Competition Law Center and Crowell & Moring, which will focus on how antitrust enforcement and proposed reforms may impact tech-driven economies.
Leading enforcers, academics, and practitioners will explore the challenges U.S. and global competition authorities face in enforcing current laws, the legislative and regulatory prospects and choices for institutional change, and how U.S. and global competition authorities may prioritize major initiatives. We will conclude with a roundtable that will reflect on the discussions in the first two panels, focusing on whether and what type of reform is needed, and identifying the most promising paths to effective enforcement, both within the current framework and through major legislative and institutional changes.

Insights

In 2025, the U.S. Government’s policy statements and Executive Orders have had far-reaching impacts for government contractors and grant recipients. Although terminations, stop work orders, and de-scopes have affected private companies, non-profits, and universities doing business across multiple agencies, the U.S. Government’s policies relating to the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) has caused particular confusion and uncertainty relating to performance, compliance, and contractual procedure. Key questions have included the potential impacts of official and less formal communications from the U.S. Government, procedural issues arising from the move of certain functions to the U.S. Department of State, and the effect of various pending litigations. As businesses and organizations plan for 2026, the importance of preserving their rights and maximizing potential recovery opportunities remains paramount.
