Online Distribution Under the New VBER

The new Vertical Block Exemption Regulation (VBER) entered into force on 1 June 2022. It introduces up-to-date rules for companies to benefit from a safe harbour for their distribution agreements, including online distribution. What changes does the VBER bring for online distribution? What are their advantages and drawbacks?

On 6 December 2022 we discussed these questions with Katarzyna Czapracka (White & Case) and Filip Tuytschaever (Contrast & Free University of Brussels).
