SYNTHÈSE

Luis Cabral moderated the discussion. He pointed out that almost none of the acquisitions initiated by GAFAM since 2000 were investigated. This has led to strong demand, especially from scholars, politicians, and policymakers, for a review of the merger review process. This is the main debate that is addressed in this webinar. A two-question poll of the audience showed that most of the audience believes that no significant harm has been done to consumers by high-tech acquisitions. However, the audience considers it necessary that the burden of proof in merger review be reversed.

Luis Cabral then moved the focus of panel discussion by stressing the difficulties in the high-tech space of distinguishing horizontal from vertical mergers.

    While there were some topics I was privy too, there were topics, in my few months in this field that were new to me. The experience was a positive one.

  • As always, these webinars are insightful, educational and empowering to me as a person who has developed an interest in the competition policy and antitrust law.
