Beyond the Draghi Report: Competition Law in the Age of Industrial Policy
Competition law and industrial policy both aim to foster economic growth and development, yet their interaction can either complement or conflict with one another. As new challenges emerge, driven by digitalization, sustainable development, and the global economic downturn, the relationship between these policies warrants a thorough review. The Draghi Report calls for a reassessment of competition policy enforcement in light of industrial policy imperatives.
This session will explore how competition and industrial policies intersect, identifying both synergies and tensions in today’s evolving economic landscape. The discussion will highlight the growing need for cooperation between these two policy areas and offer policy recommendations to enhance their productive interaction.
Join us for a thought-provoking dialogue with Fellows and Advisors of the Lab, where four speakers will provide concise insights based on their research and experience, followed by a dynamic exchange with the audience.
