Legal teams from Gibson Dunn, Freshfields, and Skadden have taken up the defense of the proposed merger between Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE) and Juniper Networks, as it faces scrutiny from the Department of Justice. The DOJ contends that the merger would diminish competition within the wireless networking sector, potentially leading to increased pricing.
On the flip side, legal representatives from Freshfields and Gibson Dunn present the merger as a strategic move aimed at enhancing the capability of the HPE-Juniper combination to deliver improved and more secure networking solutions to both public and private sector clients domestically and globally.
