Computational Antitrust: Exploring Antitrust 3.0
Computational Antitrust: Exploring Antitrust 3.0 is a pioneering online conference organized by CodeX – The Stanford Center for Legal Informatics. This event brings together antitrust agencies from over 50 countries, leading academics, and practitioners to discuss the automation of antitrust procedures and the enhancement of antitrust analysis through legal informatics.
The conference spans three days, each dedicated to a specific theme. The first day introduces computational antitrust, exploring its potential and limitations. The second day focuses on how computational tools like natural language processing and topic modeling can deepen our understanding of antitrust case law and legislation. The third day examines the application of other computational tools, such as fitness measurement, agent-based modeling, and machine learning-based APIs, to augment antitrust agencies' enforcement capabilities.
Notable speakers include Dr. Thibault Schrepel, Associate Professor of Law at VU Amsterdam University and Faculty Affiliate at Stanford's CodeX Center; Professor Alex 'Sandy' Pentland, Director of MIT Connection Science; and William E. Kovacic, Global Competition Professor of Law and Policy at George Washington University Law School. The event also features sessions like "Antitrust by Algorithm" and "Gleaning Insight from Antitrust Cases Using Machine Learning," providing attendees with opportunities to engage with experts and explore cutting-edge developments in the field.
This conference is ideal for legal professionals, policymakers, academics, and technologists interested in the intersection of antitrust law and computational tools. Attendees will gain insights into the latest advancements in computational antitrust and have the opportunity to network with leading experts and peers in the field.
