  “THE IMPACT OF INTERNATIONAL ORGANIZATIONS” WORKS ON LOCAL MARKETS TO PROMOTE ETHICAL CONDUCT

In today's ecosystem, significant development and changes are observed in local markets thanks to the initiatives and activities of international institutions and organizations. These institutions and organizations provide resources, expertise, and networks that are often difficult to access independently by local markets, enabling economic growth, infrastructure improvements, and greater access to global markets. The greatest benefit of such initiatives is the promotion of best practices and standards that help local businesses become more ethic, competitive and sustainable. In this context, our panel will feature distinguished speakers who will discuss common challenges that are independent of geography and cultural elements.

  ANTITRUST COMPLIANCE: PROTECTOR OF MARKETS OR BURDENSOME LEGAL NICHE?

With antitrust enforcement increasing globally, compliance with antitrust laws is more important than ever. The pursuit of cartels and other egregious anticompetitive conduct remains a priority for antitrust authorities around the world including in Turkey. For compliance managers and directors, the challenge lies in ensuring that the business stays compliant with antitrust laws but at the same time remains able to pursue growth opportunities in an increasingly complex and competitive business environment.

On October 8, 2024, at the Istanbul Bosphorus Hotel, during the 11th International Ethics Summit themed "Navigating Ethical Horizons," which will be a full-day event, Ms. Ninette Dodoo, partner at Freshfields Bruckhaus Deringer, will deliver a special keynote speech and engage with our stakeholders.
