Schoenherr has been present with a representative office in Brussels since late 1994, coinciding with Austria’s accession to the EU. Nowadays, the presence in Brussels reflects the geographic reach of the firm in the CEE region and the growing importance of eu law and competition law matters to the firm’s clients situated there. Schoenherr's Brussels office focuses on eu law & competition law, offering advice on matters with a CEE-impact. This includes EU and multijurisdictional merger control filings, cartel cases, state aid and competition compliance. Schoenherr's eu & competition practice is widely recognised as a top tier practice and advises clients from across all industries throughout the firm’s comprehensive network in CEE.

Today marks a turning point for the EU's anti-subsidy regime. The Foreign Subsidies Regulation (FSR) will now become fully operational. As of 12 October 2023, the European Commission (EC) can review deals and tenders under the FSR’s M&A and public procurement tools. Businesses are now also able and, where applicable, required to submit notifications on transactions and tenders in public procurement procedures. In this edition of our series, we explain why today is so significant.
