The Mannheim Competition Policy Forum (MCPF) seminar series, which was founded in September 2008, is providing a platform for the discussion of recent cases, general competition policy issues, and relevant academic research in the field. Renowned practitioners and academics have been presenting their views on cases and general policy questions.

Starting from its 10th academic year, the series is formally integrated in the competition and regulation tracks of master programs for law and economics students at the University of Mannheim. This autumn, the presenters are Thomas Fetzer (21 September), Peter Abegg (5 October), Armin Schmutzler (19 October), Dragan Jovanovic (2 November), Pierre Regibeau (16 November) and Giulio Federico (30 November).
