DESCRIPTION:Emanuele Tarantino (European Commission)\, “Competition Policy\
 , Investments and Innovation”\, Industrial Organization seminar\, TSE\, Se
 ptember 15\, 2025\, 14:15–15:30\, room Auditorium 4.\n\nThe European Commi
 ssion’s ongoing review of the Merger Guidelines comes as Europe seeks to a
 ccelerate innovation and bolster firms’ competitiveness. Against this back
 drop\, the report first examines the relationship between scale and invest
 ment in the digital backbone\, documenting investment patterns and network
  performance in Europe and the United States and proposing a methodology f
 or benchmarking telecom operators’ financial sustainability. It then devel
 ops an economic framework for identifying when horizontal mergers can rais
 e innovation\, distinguishing the roles of within-firm synergies\, involun
 tary spillovers\, and contractual technology transfers. Together\, the evi
 dence and model offer guidance for merger assessment\, emphasizing the rol
 e of efficiencies and technology-market arrangements\, and encouraging a c
 areful examination of the merits of companies’ efficiency defences.
