CELS/USC Virtual Antitrust Law Workshop Series: “No Exit”

Speakers: Sam Weinstein (Cardozo), Brian Broughman (Vanderbilt) and Matthew Wansley (Cardozo) 

Title: "No Exit"

Abstract: Fast-growing start-ups in search of capital and liquidity have traditionally sought to exit the private capital market through M&A or IPO. Until recently, antitrust enforcers rarely challenged start-up acquisitions. But under the Biden administration, enforcers worried about the growing dominance of Big Tech sued to block more start-up deals. In this presentation, we'll discuss how start-ups have responded to the antitrust crackdown not by choosing a different exit but by choosing no exit.
