Their practices include competition law, foreign direct investment, merger filings, antitrust investigations, antitrust litigation, foreign investment review, digital markets, state aid, public procurement, and other intricacies within the realm of antitrust and competition. Members collaborate to help clients navigate the intricate terrain of international regulations, ensuring their operations align with prevailing antitrust rules in cross-border mergers.
