Happy 2021!
In the coming semester—given the circumstances—the module will be taught by means of online sessions via MS Teams. These will be real-time, live interactions to facilitate class engagement. Last time round that worked very well. Fingers crossed for the technology and connections!
As the new semester approaches I am delighted to share that the highlights of the coming semester include three terrific online guest lectures.
First, there will be a Public Guest Lecture by the President of the Portuguese Competition Agency (Autoridade da Concorrência)— Ms Margarida Matos Rosa. We are thrilled and honoured that Ms Matos Rosa accepted our invitation, even more so since currently Portugal is the Presidency of the Council of the European Union. This talk will be made available to interested public and we will disseminate a link to it in due course.
Students will be also able to benefit from two additional guest lectures. Professor Kati Cseres from the University of Amsterdam will share her insights on the role of competition law enforcement in Central and Eastern European countries, raising the questions of democracy and institutional design.
Professor Viktoria HSE Robertson of the Vienna University of Economics and Business in her talk will focus on competition law questions specific to digital markets.
Both lectures will deal with very topical matters. We are indebted to both experts for taking time on their busy schedules to speak to our students.
