Guest Lecture: Professor Dr. Rupprecht Podszun (University of Düsseldorf)
2025-02-21
On 21 February, Professor Dr Rupprecht Podszun held a guest lecture at the Joachim Herz Doctoral School of Law. On this occasion, he provided the doctoral students of our institution with a multi-layered and highly informative insight into the role of digital platforms with regard to German and European competition law. Thanks to his proven expertise and practical experience in this area, he significantly broadened the students' understanding of the digitalisation of law - and of the topic of "law and transformation" in general - and added new perspectives and points of view.
Rupprecht Podszun is Professor of Civil Law, German and European Competition Law at the University of Düsseldorf (link) and Director of the Institute for Antitrust Law (link). He is also President of the International Competition Law Association (ASCOLA - Academic Society for Competition Law) and a member of the Monopolies Commission.
We would like to thank him very much for taking the time to come to Lüneburg for this insightful lecture.
