Consortium Members Get Antitrust Damage Limit
If your business is a member of the Naval Surface Technology & Innovation Consortium (NSTIC), the October 3, 2025 filings extend the protections of the National Cooperative Research and Production Act of 1993 so that antitrust plaintiffs can recover only "actual damages" under specified circumstances. The notice lists companies added as parties (for example, L3 Technologies, Lockheed Martin Coherent Technologies, and the University of North Carolina at Charlotte) and also lists several withdrawals. Membership in the project remains open and NSTIC intends to file future membership changes.
