On Monday, July 12th, the International Advertising Association is hosting a virtual fireside chat on "Global Advertising Law & Policy Issues" with Teresa Moreira, the Head of the Competition and Consumer Policies Branch at the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development. The program will begin at 9:00 a.m. ET (which is 2:00 p.m. in London, 5:00 p.m. in Dubai, and 6:30 p.m. in Mumbai).
No registration is required. The event will be live streamed on YouTube here.
I'll be moderating with discussion with Ms. Moreira, who has been Head of the Competition and Consumer Policies Branch at UNCTAD since 2016. Before that, she served as Consumer Director-General of Portugal. We'll be talking about a wide range of advertising-related issues, including online advertising, environmental claims, advertising self-regulation initiatives, and cross-border enforcement cooperation.
