Sound and vision: cutting through the noise to shape

effective competition policy

 

Thursday, 16 October 2025

As industrial ambitions in Europe and the US continue to shift, competition policy is becoming an increasingly important tool for shaping economic resilience and strategic influence. Rising security concerns, shifting political priorities and intensified global competition are redefining the global economic landscape. Should governments leverage public procurement and state aid to strengthen Europe's industrial base? Could reforming merger control foster stronger, more innovative companies? Meanwhile, as traditional cooperation frameworks are tested, transatlantic competition enforcement must adapt to new challenges.
