Description:
The Competition Bureau is an independent law enforcement agency that works to foster a competitive and innovative marketplace in which Canadian businesses can prosper.
Competition law can be overwhelming, especially as emerging technologies like AI reshape how markets operate. The growing intersection between AI and competition law raises important questions about market power, barriers to entry, and the need for fair and transparent practices, amongst others. Understanding how these dynamics may affect your business can be challenging. To shed light on this crucial information, Majid Charania, Director of Compliance at the Competition Bureau will be offering a presentation on all things competition law, covering items like:
1. Why competition law matters to startups and entrepreneurs
2. How the Bureau helps protect and promote competition
3. How to protect your business with compliance measures
