Could your business recover losses caused by a competition law breach?
On 13th October 2026, the Spanish Chamber of Commerce in the UK, in collaboration with Chamber Benefactor Hausfeld, will host a seminar exploring what businesses can do when competition law breaches affect their supply chains.
When suppliers or other businesses are found to have breached competition law, affected companies may have paid more than they should have. In such cases, businesses may be able to seek compensation for their losses. Drawing on recent cases, our speakers will explore how litigation can be viewed not only as a risk, but also as a potential source of value.
The seminar will focus on:
- When a competition law breach could mean compensation for your business.
- Where to claim: Understanding your options across the UK and Europe.
- How collective and coordinated actions can support recovery.
- How litigation funding can reduce upfront costs and financial risk.
- Practical considerations when assessing a potential claim.
Whether you are considering a potential claim or simply want to understand your options, join us for a practical discussion on how businesses can identify, assess and recover losses.
Date & time: Tuesday, 13th October, 8:00 (for a 8:30 start) – 10:00
Location: Spanish Chamber of Commerce in the UK | 126 Wigmore Street | London W1U 3RZ
This session is open to both Members and non-Members and is free of charge for Members of the Spanish Chamber of Commerce in the UK.
