India's data governance landscape is undergoing a historic transformation. With the introduction of the Draft Digital Personal Data Protection Rules 2025 following the Digital Personal Data Protection Act 2023 (“DPDPA”), the nation is re-orienting itself to a modern, consent and rights-oriented approach to data privacy.

The Rules introduce key operational and governance requirements, including itemized notice content, consent architecture, breach reporting timelines, baseline security requirements as well as specific obligations for certain classes of data fiduciaries (akin to data controllers).  

Designed for in-house counsel of businesses operating or intending to operate in India, this Webcast will provide:

  • A strategic overview of where the DPDPA stands today;
  • A deep dive into the draft rules and key compliance obligations;
  • Practical guidance for organizations on readiness, operating models, and next steps; and
  • Insights into how enforcement trends globally may influence regulatory expectations from enforcement authorities / courts.

Canada’s Competition Act has been significantly overhauled, introducing new compliance obligations and materially higher penalties. At the same time, Canada’s policy on national security reviews of foreign investments is in flux, particularly in critical minerals and technology sectors. As a result, businesses face heightened competition and foreign investment enforcement risk. Michael Osborne and Patrizia Martino will discuss what these changes mean in practice and how in-house counsel can navigate the evolving enforcement landscape.

Most antitrust exposure doesn’t originate in boardrooms or formal agreements. It originates in the field: at trade association meetings, in text threads between former colleagues who now work for competing companies, in casual conversations at industry events, and in the internal emails, Teams messages, and presentations that document how a company talks about competition. These routine interactions and communications are where enforcement agencies and plaintiffs’ lawyers find their best evidence, and they’re often invisible to the legal department until a subpoena arrives.

This session will give in-house counsel an industry agnostic practical framework for identifying and managing the antitrust risks embedded in everyday business activity. The program will cover the core antitrust principles that in-house counsel need as context and then turn to the practical settings where risk arises: competitor interactions at trade associations and industry events, benchmarking and data exchanges, and joint ventures and other competitor collaborations.

A significant portion of the session will focus on the documentary side of antitrust risk -- how internal communications become the centerpiece of investigations and litigation, and what problematic documents actually look like in practice. The program will walk through examples of the kinds of emails, text messages, and internal communications that routinely create problems in antitrust matters, with discussion of why each is problematic and how the risk could have been avoided.

The session will close with a discussion of what distinguishes antitrust compliance programs that actually change employee behavior from those that exist only on paper, and a short set of near-term steps that any legal department can take to begin evaluating its antitrust exposure.
