Jeroen Kortmann speaks at the C5 Conference "Private Enforcement of Competition Law Damage Claims" in Amsterdam

Seminar - Stibbe is organising a seminar in Amsterdam on 29 November 2019 concerning recent developments in the software market, potential new opportunities offering the right to respond to powerful suppliers, and the question of how these developing resources can be used effectively. 

Seminar - Stibbe is organising a symposium in Amsterdam on Thursday 7 November entitled 'From Stint to Fipronil: a compensation fund for victims of energetic government intervention in crisis situations'. During this symposium, Stibbe lawyer Tijn Kortmann and Prof. Pieter van Vollenhoven, alongside other experts,  will speak about the compensation fund which, according to van Vollenhoven, injured parties should be able to call upon if a decision by the government turns out to be too drastic.

Short Reads - Op donderdag 7 november 2019 was prof. mr. Pieter van Vollenhoven te gast bij ons op kantoor voor het seminar "Van Stint tot Fipronil: een schadefonds voor gedupeerden van voortvarend overheidsingrijpen in crisissituaties". In het sprekerspanel met o.a. Berthy van den Broek, Janet van de Bunt, Monique de Groot en Edwin Renzen en ook in de zaal waren de meesten duidelijk gecharmeerd van zo’n fonds Van Vollenhoven. Maar er blijven nog genoeg vragen over hoe zo’n fonds precies zou moeten worden ingericht.

Short Reads - The European Court of Justice recently ruled that the European Commission does not have to take additional precautionary measures to respect the right of legal professional privilege when conducting a new dawn raid at the same company. Companies are well-advised to mark clearly all communications covered by legal privilege as 'privileged and confidential' and to keep all privileged communication separate from other communication.
