Philip Marsden, Professor of Law & Economics at the College of Europe,
Member of Digital Competition Experts Panel, co-authoring "Unlocking Digital Competition" ("Furman Report"). Co-founder and General Editor of the European Competition Journal. The Author of "Competition Rap" – an amazing 11-min manifesto/work of Art reflecting upon contemporary history of competition law & policy in a form of rap cover – • Philip Marsden Rap on Competition
In this conversation Philip offers his vision on the latest developments in the area of regulating competition in digital markets in EU and UK, focusing on analysing and comparing the provisions of EU DMA and UK DMCCb. He also looks at the ongoing reforms through the prism of the Furman Report which had drawn the contours and intellectual directions for these initiatives.
As always, Prof. Marsden had provided very open, sincere, deep and engaged views on many delicate issues accompanying the regulatory initiatives in EU and UK. We discussed the vision – but also detailed technical nuances of both new regimes.
We hope colleagues, friends and students will find this interview useful. Your feedback is welcome.

The Digital Markets Research Hub is an independent academic initiative aiming at scrutinising the functioning of competition/regulation in digital markets. We host one-to-one interviews with leading policymakers, regulators and practitioners. We also organise online mini-workshops inviting high-profile experts and academics in various fields of digital competition law & policy to discuss the most vibrant issues of the ongoing regulatory reforms in digital markets.
While having our clear normative stand on the matters discussed within the hub, we value different views and invite relevant stakeholders and thinkers representing the whole spectrum of reasonable positions on how to regulate competition in digital markets.
