Please join Wilson Sonsini in Salt Lake City for a half-day morning seminar on competition law on Tuesday, April 29 (rescheduled from an earlier date), featuring multiple current and former Commissioners and leaders of the Federal Trade Commission.

This event will focus on the current state of competition law at both the federal and state level, including issues such as the FTC’s attempted ban of non-competition restrictions and the FTC’s current enforcement priorities with an emphasis on antitrust considerations in mergers, acquisitions, and divestitures; the direction of competition law at the state level with a particular focus on Delaware law impacting mergers, acquisitions, and divestitures; trade secret, data breach, and related competition issues involving the misappropriation of sensitive information; best practices for protecting your company’s legitimate competitive interests and sensitive information; and regulatory and compliance updates, including issues concerning AI.

The format will include a diverse and interesting series of presentations, including panel discussions, a fireside chat with one of the FTC’s current Commissioners, and audience-driven discussions.

Presenters include:

• The Hon. Melissa Holyoak, a Commissioner of the Federal Trade Commission
• Jess Krannich, Litigation Partner at Wilson Sonsini
• Maneesha Mithal, Co-Chair of Wilson Sonsini’s Data, Privacy, and Cybersecurity Practice and former leader of the FTC’s Division of Privacy and Identity Protection
