The Competition Policy International has just published the September edition of the Antitrust Chronicle. The topic is especially important to me: Computational Antitrust. Thibault Schrepel coined this term in 2021 when funding his project at Stanford University. Last year I got the honour of joining the team.

This publication means a lot to me. I’ve followed the CPI for years and based my PhD research proposal on texts from many of its editions. This influential journal

Intro: This edition of the Chronicle is devoted to computational antitrust — a term that, five years ago, still had to be defined before it could be discussed, and which now describes a working practice inside dozens of competition agencies. The contributions gathered here take stock of that shift from three angles: the state of the field as a whole, the enforcement gaps that the next generation of AI systems will open, and the analytical discipline that new theories of harm will demand of enforcers, whatever tools they have to hand. (I guess the last one refers to my contribution)

I’ll write more on the edition, texts, and authors on Monday, 21st September (here and on LinkedIn).

On Monday, 28th September, I’ll make my text publicly available on SSRN.
