PhD defence: Kathrine Søs Jacobsen Cesko
In order to obtain the PhD degree, Kathrine Søs Jacobsen Cesko has submitted her thesis entitled:
Collaboration between Economic Operators in the Competition for Public Contracts
A Legal and Economic Analysis of Grey Zones between EU Public Procurement Law and EU Competition Law
The PhD thesis concerns the intersection between EU competition law and EU public procurement law when economic operators collaborate to meet the requirements of public contracts. The PhD thesis focuses on particular forms of collaboration between economic operators and how these are evaluated under both legal regimes and brings forth a novel perspective by focusing on which forms are illegal under competition law, but also by discussing which collaborative forms are possible within public procurement in a competition framework. The PhD thesis adopts an interdisciplinary approach by its application of both legal sources and economic theories in order to understand the economic consequences of collaboration between economic operators and seeks to combine a modernized approach to public procurement law with modern competition law and economics understanding.
