Best Law Firms initiatives

Click here to submit your Law firms compliance antitrust initiatives

The Law Firms Steering Committee has reviewed over 15 antitrust compliance initiatives from law firms having developed a dedicated approach in this field of antitrust. Many law firms consider antitrust compliance as an internal duty of the companies - as corruption prevention - and intervene only in case of issues. Some law firms however have undertaken a different approach aiming at helping in-house counsel setting up internal processes dedicated to limiting legal risks. The Law Firms award-winning initiative will be announced on May 10, 2021 at the Antitrust Compliance Ceremony.

From being a fringe activity for the legal profession, competition law compliance has become a key pillar of good corporate citizenship over the last 15 years or so. So much legal expertise, business insight and creativity goes into ever-more sophisticated and bespoke compliance programs. It is about time to recognize outstanding accomplishments in this important field, and I am very pleased that Concurrences has given me a chance to support their initiative.

We are firm believers that proactive competition law compliance by businesses of all sizes is an important factor in well-functioning markets. Accordingly, we welcome this effort to increase awareness of compliance best practices and to demonstrate through dialogue and recognition that a strong culture of compliance, supported by effective policies and procedures, makes good business sense.

In the current globalized economy weakened by the health crisis, this Concurrences’s initiative is ideal for developing and promoting of compliance antitrust.

The international dimension and the format of the event give an exceptional character to the image of the participation of many professionals representative of the ecosystem (lawyers, experts, public authorities, enterprises, etc.). The opportunity to experience a 360 ° view of the antitrust issue not to be missed.

For me, Legaltech’s innovation and digital solutions are both major elements and catalysts for an effective implementation in terms of compliance antitrust by bringing traceability, consolidation, confidentiality and security to enterprises.

I am delighted to join the jury panel for the 2021 Antitrust Compliance Global Summit & Awards. The Summit creates an important platform to acknowledge the challenges faced in the last year whilst the Awards allow us to recognize the achievements of those who have overcome such challenges and are producing great work despite the odds. Events such as the Antitrust Compliance Global Summit & Awards are an excellent opportunity for agencies across the world, particularly the smaller ones, to inspire each other by sharing their innovative ideas, discussing best practice and highlighting their successes. I look forward to seeing you in January!
