Webinar Recording: Cutting Through the Antitrust Noise — What’s Actually Going On?
Antitrust is having its moment: Pending legislation on the Hill. An Executive Order from President Biden outlining 72 antitrust initiatives. New leadership at the FTC and DOJ signaling more aggressive approaches in enforcement and process. Deal timing uncertainty. Big Tech in the antitrust crosshairs. These shake-ups may leave you wondering what's really going on!

Topics include:
- The current litigation against Big Tech
- Important items in President Biden’s Executive Order
- Breaking news on timing and process of merger reviews
