Vision
Digital Competition is a research and advisory firm. Our mission is to advance open digital and competition policies for better innovation.
We support public policy teams, legal professionals, economists, in-house counsels, investors, and civil servants in navigating the evolving complexities of digital and competition policies worldwide. Through in-depth research, consultations, training sessions, and conferences, we provide insights tailored to address today’s digital policy challenges.
Based in Nice, near Europe's largest tech hub, Sophia Antipolis, we work with clients worldwide. We are looking forward to working with you to tackle your challenges.
Services
We operate across four main policy hubs to advance research on emerging and global digital and competition issues related to the Digital Markets Act, Generative AI, digital competition coherence, and digital innovation. We invite private and public organisations to join our efforts in advancing research in these critical areas by becoming members of our hubs.
We carry out research on a range of topics around digital competition. We actively seek funding opportunities from corporations or public institutions to support these initiatives. We are particularly interested in research projects focusing on Generative AI, platform regulation, competition, digital regulations, and competitiveness.
Additionally, we offer consultations, training sessions, and conferences to tech firms, venture capitalists, law firms, economic consulting firms, competition authorities, governments, and international organisations seeking expert guidance in navigating and harnessing complex market and regulatory developments.
We add value to your project through impartial, high-quality research and strategic solutions in data, AI, and competition. We engage with stakeholders, offer insights, and make policy recommendations on complex and novel policy developments.
Publications
We consistently contribute to scholarly and policy discourse in digital competition, focusing on competition and privacy, international cooperation, the Digital Markets Act, Generative AI, innovation, and merger.
In addition to our written work, we actively engage with regulatory authorities, journalists, and industry experts through presentations at prominent conferences.

Our insights on digital competition are frequently showcased in leading news media and newsletters across Europe and the United Kingdom, facilitating informed decisions.
