The debate regarding the establishment of a specialized competition tribunal within the Court of Justice of the European Union is arguably one of the most pressing and relevant discussions concerning the enforcement of competition rules in the Union. While the idea itself is not novel, there are renewed reasons to reconsider such a reform. These stem essentially from a stricter legal standard in competition-related matters, influenced primarily by the evolving jurisprudence of another significant European court – the European Court of Human Rights. Consequently, momentum is shifting towards the establishment of such a specialized tribunal. The debate we are organizing on 21 September 2023 intends to initiate a broader discussion and, in time, potentially catalyze an administrative process that could transform how decisions are made and reviewed in competition matters.
