SUMMARY:New Protectionism in  International Public Procurement
DESCRIPTION:After decades of debate\, and driven in part by “Buy American
 ” measures in the United States\, the European Union has launched the
  International Procurement Instrument (IPI) – a new device to punish t
 hose (including potentially U.S. vendors) from nations that do not open th
 eir public procurement markets to vendors from the European Union.  At th
 e same time\, the EU has reached political agreement on a different meas
 ure which would impose price penalties on foreign bidders that received go
 vernment subsidies. For its part\, Switzerland\, in its Public Procuremen
 t Act\, entered into force in January 2021\, has adopted similar measures 
 against unfair pricing from abroad.\n\nJoin the GW Law Government Procurem
 ent Law Program for a free\, hour-long webinar on Wednesday\, September 7
 \, 2022 at 9:00 am EST (14:00 UK / 15:00 CET) on these critical developmen
 ts – measures which define new approaches to protectionism – with lega
