Competition Law in Times of Price Increases and Supply Shortages
Webinar | 12.07.21, 6:00 AM CST - 8:00 AM CST
In Collaboration with IBJ/IJE
Many sectors are currently facing supply shortages and price increases for inputs. Companies are looking for strategies to tackle these issues and maintain profitability. However, in doing so, they have to be careful not to fall foul of competition rules.
In this webinar, Crowell & Moring lawyers Karel Bourgeois and Karl Stas will cover competition law do’s and don’ts in this context. They will cover various aspects including collusion (e.g. how to communicate about price increases), abuse of dominance, abuse of economic dependence, as well as the Belgian Competition Authority’s powers in relation to “abnormal” price evolutions.
They will also discuss the return of dawn raids, drawing on recent direct experience with unannounced inspections by both the European Commission and national competition authorities.

Digital Product Passports and Digital Material Passports: What You Need to Know (Part 2)
Digital Product Passports are set to transform how products are sold across Europe. For consumers, this means unprecedented access to product information. Sustainability and compliance data, alongside other key product details, will become far easier to access and compare than ever before. As a “single source of truth” for products, DPPs may also enable EU authorities to identify non-compliance more quickly and efficiently, potentially restricting or preventing non-compliant products from entering the European market.
