WEBINAR: Antitrust in Transition – What to Expect in the First 100 Days — C&M's First 100 Days Series

Webinar | 02.02.17, 8:00 AM EST - 9:00 AM EST

Federal antitrust enforcement ramped up significantly during Obama’s second term, pushing the envelope of the FTC’s authority under Section 5, challenging mergers at a steady clip and alleging broad theories of harm in conduct cases brought under Section One of the Sherman Act. Will the Trump administration change course? If so, should we expect an immediate impact? How much will personnel decisions affect the course of events?

Key topics:

  • Taking stock: where are we now? What happens before new officials at the DOJ and FTC are nominated and confirmed?
  • Is now a good time to do your deal? What will successful deal advocacy look like in the short and longer term?
  • Will the new leadership take the more laissez-faire approach historically associated with Republican administrations, or will the new era bring something new entirely?
  • How will international and state regulators respond to a new federal approach?
  • How can companies take practical steps to manage risk in this uncertain environment?

Partners Joe Miller, Jeane Thomas, and Ryan Tisch will be speaking in this webinar.

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.
