Businesses need to distinguish between legitimate competitor collaboration and anticompetitive collusion, or could find themselves in hot water.
Leading competition and consumer protection lawyer Anna Ryan will provide guidance on how to distinguish between the two at an upcoming Lane Neave Business Intelligence Series in Queenstown.
Hosted in collaboration with the Queenstown Business Chamber of Commerce, the one-hour seminar is being held on Thursday, 19 September at 9.30am.
It’s an opportunity for businesses to deepen their understanding of price-fixing and other illegal cartel conduct – ultimately helping them avoid prosecution and safeguard their organisation.
Anna will reference a recent case which was New Zealand’s first-ever criminal prosecution for cartel conduct. In December 2023, the Commerce Commission filed criminal charges against two construction companies and two directors for the alleged bid-rigging of publicly funded construction contracts.
