Chillin'Competition

The 21st edition of the Competition Law course that Luis Ortiz Blanco and myself co-direct in Madrid is coming to an end this week (and with it, my chances to go to Spain for at least a few hours…)

From today until Wednesday our very own Pablo will be coordinating a module on network industries featuring a stellar line up of experts who also happen to be good friends of this blog.

And on Friday 9 March, Judge Mercedes Pedraz (Audiencia Nacional/Spanish Court of Appeal) has put together a programme for the closing seminar. Take a look:
