On June 2, Axinn partner Koren Wong-Ervin will speak on a panel entitled, "Moving Beyond the Consumer Welfare Standard and Antitrust Populism" at the American Bar Association's Antitrust in the Americas Conference, being held June 1-2 in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.

Panelists will explore important antitrust issues and their potential impact on business activity in the Americas and answer questions including: 

• Is there a need for a restatement of the goals and purposes of competition law?
• Should antitrust policy account for noncompetition concerns, including employment and environmental issues?
• Do these questions raise institutional capacity concerns for competition authorities?
