Thursday, October 8, 2026 @ 1:00 pm - 2:00 pm
Event Navigation
Antitrust law has been at the center of today’s biggest debates — Big Tech, healthcare consolidation, labor markets, and beyond. But what exactly is antitrust, and why should we care?
Join us for a conversation with Professor Talha Syed, who will break down the foundations of antitrust law, explain how it shapes the economy and society, and discuss its relevance to students across practice areas. Whether you’re curious about corporate law, public interest work, or just want to better understand the forces structuring markets & society, this is a chance to get clear, practical insights from one of antitrust’s most feared professors!
Food will be provided! RSVP here.
