CEENRG Thursday seminars: 'Sustainability agreements and competition law: the way forward'

Speaker: Dr Kelvin Kwok (Associate Professor of Law, University of Hong Kong)

The Cambridge Centre for Environment, Energy, and Natural Resource Governance (C-EENRG) is hosting a seminar series throughout the 2024- 25 academic year.

Businesses may come together to agree on a common set of environmental standards. These sustainability agreements are controversial from a competition law point of view. To what extent are sustainability agreements restrictive of competition, and should they benefit from legal defences? These questions will be discussed during the seminar, with reference to relevant guidelines issued by EU and UK competition authorities.

Seminars take place as hybrid meetings (in person seminars in the DAB - David Attenborough Building + online in Zoom) every Thursday (please check precise time as may vary) during the term. Please register online to receive the Zoom link on the day of the seminar. Everyone is welcome!
