FTC Issues Five-Year Strategic Plan: What Businesses Need to Know

The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) recently released its Strategic Plan for Fiscal Years 2026–2030, setting out the agency’s enforcement priorities and operational objectives for the next five years under Chairman Andrew N. Ferguson. The plan reaffirms the FTC’s commitment to vigorously enforcing the nation’s antitrust and consumer protection laws “without fear or favor.” Critically for businesses, the plan returns the phrase “without unduly burdening legitimate business activity” to the agency’s mission statement, signaling a commitment to ending what the agency characterizes as overregulation of businesses that compete fairly and deal honestly with consumers.

Preserve It or Lose It: A Missing Jury Instruction Costs Columbia University $94M in Damages

The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit recently decided in Bd. of Trs. of Columbia Univ. v. Gen Digital Inc., No. 2024-1243 (Fed. Cir. 2026) that the district court erred in its denial of judgment as a matter of law as to damages resulting from foreign sales of downloadable software. At Columbia University's request, the jury had been instructed that “Columbia [was] entitled to damages based on sales to customers located outside of the United States if . . . the infringing product sold to those customers was made in or distributed from the United States, even if the infringing product [was] delivered to and used by the customer outside the United States.” The court concluded as a matter of law that the software sold to Gen Digital‘s (Norton) foreign customers was made outside the United States, and therefore the $94 million in foreign sales damages could not stand.
