Tune in for an interview with Philip Marsden in the first episode of our series dedicated to the Digital Markets Act (DMA) - the EU legislative proposal designed to complement existing competition law, in attempt to tame the power of digital platforms that, quoting the DMA itself, serve as a "gateway for business users to reach end users" - the so-called "gatekeepers".  Hear insights of Philip Marsden - who counts decades in various lead and advisory roles to competition enforcement and regulatory bodies as well as businesses - about why:

  • He is a  proponents of 'running' with digital markets regulation
  • Designation as a 'gatekeeper' should not be appealable
  • Institutional design will be decisive for the DMA to succeed

And many other ideas and suggestions he has on "restoring balance to digital competition".
