Our Antitrust team has extensive expertise in all competition matters including cartel investigations, abuses of dominant position, unfair commercial practices and damages actions before national and European courts.
Our focus lies in technology sectors, where our team has received international recognition for handling multiple leading cases over the years. Some of these cases have shaped the interface between competition law and IP in Italy.
The experience of our antitrust team in navigating issues related to competition law in the field of technology standards and FRAND (Fair, Reasonable, and Non-Discriminatory) licensing is second to none in Italy, and highly regarded across Europe.
In our day-to-day work, we constantly assist clients across a wide range of industries in structuring and reviewing the compliance of their distribution systems, online sales strategies, pricing and discount policies. We guide our clients in all aspects of commercial and sustainability-related communications, supply chain governance and management models, and we ensure alignment with applicable regulatory frameworks and best market practices.
In the pharmaceutical sector, we combine our competition capabilities with our strong industry focus, regularly negotiating, drafting and reviewing the compliance of a broad range of agreements, including R&D collaborations, licensing arrangements, transfers of marketing authorizations, and other complex commercial contracts.
