Guest lecture by Dr. Vitaly Pruzhansky on “Merger Control in the Digital Sector: what can we learn from recent cases?”

Can mergers in the digital sector harm competition? And if so, how?

On Tuesday, February 25th, 2025, students of our European Economic Studies Department had the opportunity to explore these pressing questions together with Dr. Vitaly PRUZHANSKY, who delivered an insightful lecture on the evolving challenges of merger control in the digital era!

From the rise of dominant tech players to the risks of market foreclosure, the lecture provided a deep dive into the key theories of harm shaping today’s competition regulatory landscape, drawing lessons from recent high-profile cases.

A warm thank you to Dr. Pruzhansky for sharing his knowledge and expertise with us all - our students are now ready to debate the future of digital competition like true economists!
