Wednesday, October 29, 2025 9:00 am - 10:00 am

This webinar will examine the investigation opened by the Superintendence of Industry and Commerce of Colombia (SIC) in docket No. 23-476228, in which the authority initiated an administrative proceeding and issued a formal statement of objections (“pliego de cargos”) against Apple for alleged anticompetitive conduct, specifically abuse of a dominant position. The case, unprecedented in Colombia, raises key questions about the definition of the relevant market, the challenges of enforcing competition law against foreign companies, and the broader debate on how far regulators in Latin America should go in setting precedent in cases involving digital markets.
