About the Program
The next session of our 2026 Commercial Litigation Outlook Webinar Series explores one of the most dynamic risk environments facing businesses today: the convergence of antitrust enforcement, consumer class actions, and privacy litigation. As regulators and plaintiffs sharpen their focus on data‑driven strategies, AI‑enabled tools, and digital consumer engagement, companies face growing scrutiny and higher stakes in how technology is deployed and governed.
This session is designed for legal and compliance professionals, in‑house counsel, and business leaders seeking practical guidance on anticipating enforcement trends, reducing exposure, and aligning business practices with emerging legal expectations.
What You’ll Learn:
- Antitrust and merger enforcement trends in 2026, including scrutiny of algorithmic pricing, data sharing, AI‑driven decision‑making, and ongoing aggressive oversight of major transactions and Big Tech.
- Rising consumer class action exposure, including under the Telephone Consumer Protection Act and email, digital marketing and website focused claims, as well as enforcement of arbitration provisions and class action waivers.
- Privacy enforcement and litigation priorities, with a focus on demonstrating that opt‑outs, consent mechanisms, and disclosures function as promised across websites and mobile applications.
- How AI is reshaping litigation risk, accelerating privacy claims and enforcement activity, and what companies can do now to mitigate that risk.
This timely program underscores how antitrust, privacy, and consumer litigation risks are converging around data and technology. As enforcement expectations continue to shift from written policies to operational proof, attendees will leave with a clearer roadmap for managing compliance, defending claims, and navigating an increasingly aggressive litigation environment.
