Who we are:
We are competition experts who bridge law and economics, academia and practice, as well as business and enforcement.
Thanks to our academic backgrounds, our experience in the European Commission and other enforcement agencies, as well as training in EU Competition Law, we are able to effectively place rigorous economic reasoning within the appropriate legal framework.
Our consultants are able to communicate complex economic concepts in a clear and efficient manner to companies, lawyers and regulators.
Our thorough knowledge of EU antitrust procedures allows us to propose creative and pragmatic solutions to the most challenging competition issues.
