Big Tech: Monopoly’s Second Moment? The Evolution and Trajectory of Government Policy and Corporate Strategy

The LRI are delighted to announce our next event Big Tech: Monopoly’s Second Moment? The Evolution and Trajectory of Government Policy and Corporate Strategy

The conference is co-sponsored by LRI and the Wilson/Currie Chair in Canadian Business History, Rotman School of Management, University of Toronto.

The theme addresses one of the great public policy challenges of our time: the power of Big Tech. The FAANG companies – Facebook, Amazon, Apple, Netflix and Google/Alphabet – are the technological/digital behemoths of the 21st century and are increasingly viewed as the “new monopolies.” The consequences of the Great Pandemic of 2020 make discussions on this topic even more timely and relevant.

We are delighted that LRI governor The Hon. Dr. Kevin G. Lynch will be joining us as a keynote guest, along with Dr. Richard Langlois of the university of Connecticut.

Date: Friday, October 2, 2020

Time: 8:30 a.m. – 12:30 p.m. (ET)
