DG Competition organised a half-day conference to present and discuss new evidence on the evolution of competition in the EU. Download the Report on the evolution of competition in the EU during the past 25 years and related contributions.
Based on contributions from the OECD, a consortium of researchers led by Lear and from within DG Competition itself, DG Competition gathered new economic evidence on how the conditions of competition in the EU have changed over time, the main drivers of those changes, and the impact of competition on prices, competitiveness and growth. Thought leaders, researchers and experts from the OECD, National Competition Authorities and academia discussed these new findings.
