THE EUROPEAN COMPETITION LAW TUESDAYS:

The IEE-ULB Institute for European Studies is a scientific institution founded in 1963 by M. S.J. Ganshof van der Meersch. It is dedicated to teaching and research in European economic, historical, legal, political and social fields.

The institute has been organising a programme of monthly conferences on current issues in European competition law for over fifty years.

These monthly conferences, known as the European Competition Law Tuesdays, are organised by Professors Jean-François Bellis and Denis Waelbroeck.

They consist of a discussion forum, focusing on interventions by experts in the field, followed by a discussion with the participants. This year’s seminars will be dedicated once again to the study of different important developments in the jurisprudence of European courts and the practice and policy of the European Commission.
