Understanding IEEE SA's Antitrust, Competition, and Commercial Terms Policies Course

IEEE and IEEE SA rules and policies govern IEEE standards development, but IEEE’s standards development activities must also comply with the laws in jurisdictions in which IEEE conducts its activities. Nearly all countries and jurisdictions around the world have “antitrust” or “competition” laws. These laws are designed to help keep markets competitive by prohibiting anti competitive agreements and abuse of dominant market positions.
