In recent years, new policy questions have emerged, and old ones have gained more prominence, against the background of the slower pace of, and shrinking scope for, regulation reform in some countries, as well as structural changes in the economy in the digital age.
The aim of the conference is to bring together policymakers and practitioners, international institutions, and leading academics to shed light on these issues from both practical and research perspectives and draw robust and novel policy implications.
The conference will feature a high-level policy panel and keynote speakers including Philippe Aghion (College de France and London School of Economics), Ufuk Akcigit (University of Chicago), and Alejandra Palacios (Chair of COFECE, the Competition Commission of Mexico).
