About IWF

The Interdisciplinary Forum on Competition (IFW) provides a platform for the cross-disciplinary exchange of early-career scholars in competition law and competition economics. The conferences organized as part of the forum take place every two years in fall (November) and focus on a current overarching theme which is discussed jointly by postdoctoral speakers on different career levels (post-docs, junior professors, assistant professors, etc.)?from both legal and economic perspectives.

The Interdisciplinary Forum on Competition originated with the interdisciplinary postdoc conference “Competition in Digital Markets” (2023), organized by Dr. Bj?rn Christian Becker at Julius Maximilians University Würzburg, and has since been jointly organized by legal scholars Jun.-Prof. Dr. Tabea Bauermeister and Dr. Bj?rn Christian Becker as well as the economist Dr. Annika St?hr.
