Joint Webinar | The Revised EU Horizontal Guidelines: Hot & green topics

On June 1, 2023, the European Commission endorsed the revised Horizontal Guidelines on the applicability of Article 101 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union to cooperation agreements between competitors, and published a Q&A document on the adoption of the new rules. The revised Horizontal Guidelines accompany the revised Horizontal Block Exemption Regulations on Research & Development and Specialisation agreements.

Firms wishing to enter into cooperation agreements or joint initiatives with actual or potential competitors will need to take account of the new rules, as these will undoubtedly have an impact on the scope and limitations of their cooperation.

In view of the above, this webinar will provide an overview of the main changes of the revised Guidelines. In particular:

• Production agreements
• Standard terms
• Relationships between joint ventures and parent companies
• Purchasing agreements
• Commercialization agreements
• Information exchanges
• Sustainability agreements
