In Conversation with Jorge Padilla, Neil Dryden, Ethel Fonseca, Katie Curry & Chris Cook

In the latest instalment of Cleary Gottlieb’s Antitrust Review podcast, host Nick Levy is joined by a group of economists and lawyers to discuss one of the most interesting questions in contemporary EU merger control – the role of innovation and the circumstances in which an otherwise anti-competitive merger should be approved because of its projected positive effect on investment and innovation. Jorge Padilla and Neil Dryden of Compass Lexecon, Ethel Fonseca and Katie Curry of RBB, and Chris Cook of Cleary Gottlieb provide a masterclass in explaining the relevant policy, economic, and legal issues.
