We're delighted to invite you to our International Business-to-Consumer Annual Update - an essential webinar for any business that sells or markets to consumers.

Our international Business-to-Consumer team will explore the most recent consumer law developments and highlight the key changes on the horizon that you need to know.

We will kick off with a brief summary of the current developments in the consumer law landscape across Europe and in the UK, before looking ahead to discuss the future of:

The Digital Fairness Act, including consumer contracts and advertising and marketing.
Green claims under the Empowering Consumers Directive and what this means for sustainability labels, generic environmental claims, and future environmental performance claims.
Enforcement, focusing on recent actions taken by the consumer regulatory authorities.
The rise of consumer litigation in the UK and EU, highlighting types of group and class actions, the challenges of litigation funding, and examples of some recent cases.
Product compliance update, including Ecodesign, Digital Product Passport and packaging waste.

We will end the webinar with a Q&A to make sure we have covered all areas that are important to your business. If you'd like to submit a question ahead of the webinar, please do get in touch.
