Faculty Research Seminar – ‘The Incursion of Antitrust into China’s Platform Economy’ by Prof. Sandra Marco Colino (Online)

This seminar will focus on China’s antitrust strategy towards the platform economy. As enforcers everywhere come to terms with the unique challenges posed by the market power amassed by digital gatekeepers, China’s sudden, fierce attack on its own tech giants has been as effective as it has been baffling to observers. Although antitrust enforcement and policymaking have progressed by leaps and bounds, antitrust is only one of several battlefields of the war on platforms. In this seminar, Prof. Marco Colino will first dissect the competition law developments that have taken place in the first year of China’s “Big Tech crackdown”, focusing on enforcement, policymaking, and law and institutional reform. Thereafter, Prof. Marco Colino will attempt to “join the dots” and assess the results of the (partly) Big Tech-motivated refurbishment of the Chinese antitrust law and policy landscape.
