Knowing our industry and competitors is beneficial to business success. However, we must ensure that we stay within the boundaries of competition law when we gather information on competitors’ activities, products, or services.

These FAQs, which are integral to that effort, give guidance on how we can best achieve our business goals in a way that is consistent with competition law when gathering competitive intelligence.

    1. 1

      Can I gather information and prepare internal reports about a competitor’s product pipeline?

      Yes, but only where you have gathered this information from your own analysis (eg observations at trade shows) or from publicly available sources (eg competitor’s website, press reports).
