    Message from Chair Gary Zanfagna

    It is my pleasure to provide an update on activities and initiatives the Section has been busy working on. As I said in my last message, it is truly an exciting time to be an antitrust, consumer protection, and data privacy expert.

    This year’s Spring Meeting (our 69th) will set the stage for our continued exploration of the future of antitrust. Taking place virtually and within the first 100 days of a new administration, the Spring Meeting will feature a distinguished slate of practitioners, academics, elected officials, and enforcers who will enlighten and educate the public about various aspects of the future of antitrust. In addition to the diverse programming, the Spring Meeting will provide fantastic virtual networking opportunities that bring together over 2,000 attendees from around the world.
