'We are in an exciting phase of competition enforcement and policy in Australia. The next few years promises a new merger control regime, continued strong antitrust enforcement and potentially new ex-ante digital platform regulation. This combination will result in an interesting mix of cases and stimulating debates. I hope to continue to be in the thick of this action.' Congratulations Robert Walker on being named among the next generation of leading antitrust practitioners in Global Competition Review's 40 under 40!
