The annual ABA Antitrust Law Spring Meeting, now in its 71st year, is the largest gathering of competition, consumer protection, and data privacy professionals globally, with lawyers, academics, economists, enforcers, journalists, and students from around the world. Typically there are over 3,400 delegates from more than 65 nations. And for good reason: the substance of the sessions, and the knowledge and experience of the faculty, is unequaled. As usual, Wilson Sonsini’s preeminent Antitrust and Privacy groups have leadership roles, but this year is particularly busy for the groups who are sending five speakers in addition to having Estefania Torres Paez serve as one of the conference’s four Young Economists/Lawyer Representatives. Come hear our leading practitioners on the following panels:
The Spring Meeting provides a valuable opportunity to gather both domestic and international perspectives on competition, consumer protection, and data privacy law from talented/esteemed faculty as well as delegates. We hope to see you there!
