“Competition Law Trends for 2022”, prepared by our Antitrust and Competition team, led by Stamatis Drakakakis, is aimed not only at summarising the most noteworthy antitrust, merger control and State aid developments, legislative or judicial that dominated 2021 both at European and Greek level, but also at providing an outlook on what the competition trends, the focus and priorities of competition authorities, notably the European Commission (EC) and the Hellenic Competition Commission (HCC) will most likely be in 2022.
The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, the trend towards digital transformation, climate change, the EU sustainability goals, the transformation of various industries and the need for innovation are only a few of the parameters that are anticipated to lead change in the realm of antitrust and competition law in 2022.
