European Green Deal

Green Competition

Following the UN2030 deal and the Paris climate agreement, the European Green Deal has been presented by the Commission as a growth strategy aiming to make Europe the first climate neutral continent by 2050.

However, companies engaging in Sustainability and ESG face competition concerns. For example, there is a potential conflict between competition rules and sustainability goals where companies collaborate with the aim of accelerating the pace of change to support ESG development.

In this webinar we will explore:

• How competition authorities across Europe are enforcing European competition law in cases which present sustainability issues.
• The tools available to enforcers and regulators to take into account sustainability concerns when it comes to behaviours which are likely to fall under the competition law scrutiny.

• Dr. Dirk Middelschulte, Global General Counsel Competition, Unilever
• Dr. Cristina Volpin, Competition Expert, OECD
• Karima El Sammaa, Global Senior Antitrust Counsel and Compliance, GE Renewable Energy
• Massimiliano Kadar, Deputy Head of Unit, DG Competition, European Commission
