In Collaboration with the IBJ-IJE

Even the best compliance program cannot always prevent 'over-ambitious' employees from engaging in anti-competitive conduct with counterparts at competitor companies. But what happens if such a practice is discovered, or if a competition authority knocks on your door one morning?

Join us for an insightful session in which we will guide you through all stages of a cartel lifecycle and answer important questions such as:

  • What should you do when you discover misconduct?
  • How should you react when your company is subject to a dawn raid?
  • What does a cartel investigation look like? What are the possible sanctions and how can you influence the outcome?

What should you do after a decision has been adopted? Should you appeal? What about possible damages claims?

With cartel investigations remaining a high priority for competition authorities in Belgium and the EU, this webinar will help you navigate the costly pitfalls of a cartel investigation and prepare you for when things get serious.

Your questions and insights are welcome.

We look forward to your participation in this engaging session.

Terminations, Stop Work Orders, and De-Scopes – The Latest Updates and Recovery Opportunities for USAID Contractors and Grant Recipients

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.
