The new edition of the LSE Short Course on State Aid and Subsidies Regulation will be organised, again, in February of this year. I really look forward to it, as it comes at a time when major developments are reshaping the discipline in fundamental ways (so fundamental, in fact, that they inspired me to write a whole book on them).

The Short Course will cover all these developments, including the changes brought about by the Clean Industrial Deal framework, the emerging administrative practice under the EU Foreign Subsidies Regulation and the growing case law interpreting the UK Subsidy Control Act 2022.

It always seemed to me that State aid and subsidies are learnt ‘along the way’ by many lawyers. The point of this Short Course is precisely to provide what many might miss: the necessary basics and conceptual framework to navigate the discipline and remain on top of contemporary trends.

As usual, the Short Course will take place online and it is designed with full-time professionals in mind. Attendance will be capped at around 25 participants to maximise interaction (always one of the big pluses of this format: every edition is shaped by the discussions that take place).

The sessions will be on four consecutive Thursdays: 6th, 13th, 20th and 27th February (at the usual time: 2pm to 6pm London time).

An LSE Certificate will of course be available upon completion, along with CPD points for practitioners.

If you have any questions about the organisational aspects of the two courses, do not hesitate to contact my wonderful colleague Mandy Tinnams: A.Tinnams@lse.ac.uk.
