5. CLARS & Economics Session – The Google\/Fitbit Merger: Where Do We Stand? (30 March)<\/h2>\n
\n
\n
\n
If Google’s acquisition of FitBit is approved, what does this mean for personal data and consumers?<\/strong><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n

The European Commission and the U.S. DOJ have approved the controversial Google\/Fitbit merger based on a static, conventional view according to which only limited issues arise from a merger of complements.<\/p>\n

This presentation will suggest that there are unprecedented concerns in a merger case such as this one, which allows Fitbit\u2019s data-gathering capabilities to fall in the hands of Google. Indeed, such a merger creates major risks of extension of monopoly power and consumer exploitation.<\/p>\n

Digital healthcare is a major growth area, and the combination of Fitbit\u2019s health data with Google\u2019s other data creates unique opportunities for discrimination and exploitation of consumers in healthcare, health insurance and other sensitive areas. The approval of this merger would lead to market failure and monopolisation in digital healthcare.<\/p>\n

Date:<\/strong> 30 March 2021<\/p>\n

Time:<\/strong> 3:00 PM \u2013 4:15 PM AEDT<\/p>\n

6. Law & Business Seminar Series: Should Australia Permit Dual Class Listings? (12 May)<\/h2>\n

Join the third instalment of the CLARS Law & Business Seminar Series 2021<\/strong><\/p>\n

In recent years, leading global stock exchanges including Hong Kong, Singapore, India, Tokyo and Shanghai’s STAR market have permitted issuers to list with dual class share structures to encourage more tech and other high-innovation company listings.<\/p>\n

Then, at the end of 2020, the UK government commenced a consultation on the possibility of loosening the London Premium Listing sector’s characteristic hostility to weighted voting structures.<\/p>\n

Against this backdrop, is it now time for the ASX to consider following suit and reforming its longstanding one share\/one vote rule with respect to Australian listed companies?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Date:<\/strong> 12 May 2021<\/p>\n

Time:<\/strong> 5:00 PM \u2013 6:15 PM AEST<\/p>\n
