Panel 2: Antitrust in the Digital Economy
Antitrust law has taken center stage in China’s efforts to regulate Big Tech firms. Over recent years, the Chinese regulatory authorities have pursued several landmark cases, amended the Anti-Monopoly Law, and proposed updates to the Anti-Unfair Competition Law. What are the current priorities in Chinese antitrust enforcement? Will mergers and acquisitions involving Big Tech companies be subjected to greater legal scrutiny? What are the most recent updates on interoperability requirements for Chinese platforms? How will these changes impact the competitive landscape? How might these influence the competitive dynamics in China’s tech industry? Will Chinese authorities follow the lead of other jurisdictions like the EU in introducing more ex ante regulation? How will the Anti-Unfair Competition Law evolve in the context of Big Tech regulation?

單元二：大數據時代的反壟斷問題
反壟斷法在中國監管大型科技公司方面發揮著核心作用。 近年來，中國市場監管部門調查了多起具有代表性的案件，修訂了《反壟斷法》，並建議更新《反不正當競爭法》。 目前中國反壟斷執法的焦點是什麼？ 科技巨頭的併購活動是否將面臨更嚴格的法律審查？ 中國平台互操作性要求有哪些最新動態？ 這些變化將如何影響競爭格局？ 它們又將如何改變中國科技行業的競爭態勢？ 中國政府是否會效仿歐盟等地區，引入更多的事前監管措施？ 在科技巨頭監管背景下，《反不正當競爭法》將如何發展？
