Committee

Dear Colleague,

The American Bar Association Section of Antitrust Law and the International Bar Association Antitrust Committee are delighted to invite you to the Eleventh International Cartel Workshop, which will be held in Tokyo, Japan from February 3 to 5, 2016. Recognized globally as the premier international cartel conference, it is presented every two years. Each time, it takes place in a different major city, having last been in Rome in 2014. It is fitting that the Workshop will be held in Asia for the first time and the choice of Tokyo recognizes the prominence of cartel enforcement in East Asia during the past five years.

The Tokyo program will continue the Workshop’s long tradition of instruction by demonstration. A faculty of more than seventy-five highly experienced attorneys from around the world will take you through a hypothetical global cartel investigation – from detection of a conspiracy by company inside counsel to the ultimate disposition of both the enforcement actions and civil damage actions in jurisdictions around the world. The Workshop will highlight current developments in cartel enforcement in many jurisdictions. In addition to the demonstrations that will illustrate how these new developments impact cartel enforcement, the program will feature an enforcers’ roundtable where questions will be put to the top enforcers from the United States, the European Commission, Japan, Canada, Australia and Brazil. To allow more time to hear from these enforcers, this year’s enforcers’ roundtable will run two hours and fifteen minutes.

The 2016 Workshop will cover three full days with twenty eight real world scenes. It will also feature a number of noteworthy new presentations. First, a pre-opening panel will again present an international cartel fundamentals roundtable. To honor our host country and, for the convenience of the many Japanese practitioners and legal department leaders who will attend, the fundamentals roundtable will be presented in Japanese. Second, the Workshop will focus sharply on new developments on the value of compliance programs in negotiating a resolution to an investigation and how the enforcers will consider compliance in deciding appropriate penalties. Third, over the years, we have been encouraged to present demonstrations of what happens if a company decides to contest the charges rather than plead guilty or settle. There will be a panel dedicated to the strategy and ultimate decision to contest the charges, as well as a demonstration of the opening arguments in a U.S. criminal case before Federal Judge Susan Illston. Fourth, continuing on the decision to contest the case, the parties will argue a class certification motion before Judge Illston in the civil class actions following the criminal actions. Finally, the last roundtable will consider the future of global cartel enforcement and respond to questions.

As an incentive for in-house counsel and corporate legal department members to attend the Workshop, we are offering a heavily discounted coupon to corporate counsel and legal department members. Please see the registration page for details. We extend this very special invitation to in-house counsel and legal department members with a sincere hope that you will attend this unique event.

We hope you will join us in Tokyo for this comprehensive and exciting program. Please register early to take advantage of the early bird discounts and secure your seat – the Workshop has sold out in previous years. We look forward to seeing you in Tokyo.
