ALC Advogados and MDR Advogados, exclusive members of the Morais Leitão Legal Circle network, have been nominated for the 2026 Global Competition Review (GCR) Awards in the category “Merger Control Matter of the Year – APMEA (Asia-Pacific, Middle East and Africa)” for the Groupe Canal+/MultiChoice transaction.
This category recognises the leading merger control matter of the year in the Asia-Pacific, Middle East and Africa region and highlights transactions of significant legal complexity and strategic impact.
The GCR Awards are among the most prestigious international distinctions in the field of Competition Law and annually honour the matters, teams and initiatives that have stood out worldwide. The inclusion of ALC and MDR among the nominees reinforces international recognition of their respective practices and demonstrates their teams’ ability to advise on large-scale cross-border transactions.
The awards ceremony will take place on 24 March 2026 in Washington, DC, on the eve of the ABA Spring Meeting, an event that brings together leading competition law specialists from around the world.
Further information about the event is available on the GCR website.
