Competition Law for a Complex Economy

A lecture by Professor Ioannis Lianos, Chair of Global Competition Law and Public Policy, University College London Faculty of Laws; Visiting Professor at Sciences Po.
He is also the director of the Centre for Law, Economics and Society at UCL and the Academic Director of the BRICS Competition Law and Policy Centre. His new book on Competition Law will be published by the Oxford University Press in April 2019.
Moderated by Professor Frédéric Jenny, Chairman of the OECD Competition Committee and Professor of Economics at ESSEC Business School.
This lecture will explore the most significant changes brought about by the emergence of digitalisation from the perspective of competition law enforcement. These structural changes, some of which pre-date, to a certain extent, the beginning of the ‘digital revolution’, can be summarised as relating to three broader trends: futurity, personalisation and cybernetics.
The speaker will explore the practical implications of these changes for competition law enforcement before making suggestions as to the direction of the development of competition law and policy in the era of ‘informational’ capitalism.
