Shalakany is pleased to announce that Senior Partner, Omar Sherif, will be moderating the panel “Merger Control in Emerging Markets” at the upcoming AIJA Cairo 2026 Conference, bringing together distinguished practitioners from Egypt, Germany, France and Italy to discuss the growing importance of merger control in cross-border M&A transactions.
Joining Omar on the panel will be Marie-Luise Heuer, Senior Associate at BLOMSTEIN, Berlin; Margot Blondel, Counsel at Astura, Paris; Francesca Bichiri, PhD, Senior Associate at act legal, Italy; and Aziz Abaza, Partner, Amereller, Egypt.
As merger-control regimes continue to evolve across emerging markets, understanding these issues early in the transaction process is increasingly important for M&A lawyers, investors and businesses pursuing cross-border opportunities.
Looking forward to an engaging discussion and to exchanging perspectives with an excellent panel of colleagues.
