The Lear Competition Festival (LCF) is a hub that brings together innovation, networking, and exciting opportunities for the antitrust community.
Experts from a variety of backgrounds will address the most topical issues of competition law and economics.
Over its four days, this international event will host cutting-edge debates on new competition tools and issues, discussions of selected international cases, and advanced academic contributions on competition law, competition economics, competition policy, and regulation.
As we are aware of the valuable synergies that can arise from this event and between participants and partners that decide to adhere to the event, LCF offers the opportunity to become a partner to organise parallel sessions focused on innovative and critical topics and/or hot cases.

In addition, LCF will offer media sponsors the opportunity to become a media partner and organise special sessions dedicated, for instance, to the discussion of a recently published book or the interview of leading experts in the field of antitrust.
The festival will start with an Open Day dedicated to students, graduates, and freelancers to meet firms and international organizations and kickstart their networking activities. During this day, participants will have also the opportunity to present their personal research during the Poster Session and participate in get-together events.
LCF will host the Young Talent Competition Award (YTCA), in which young economists and lawyers are invited to present their research proposals on topics related to competition. In this way, we strongly encourage the next generation who wish to pursue a professional or academic career in the field of antitrust.
