Summary
The course provides an overview of the main legal elements of the EU legal order and system. After attending the course, participants will be able to assess the relevance of EU law for various aspects of day to day business. They will have learned how to put EU law into practice by recognising where there may be risks in newly proposed or existing EU legislation for their professional activities, and by identifying the relevance of certain parts of EU law for contracts and agreements between companies (Art. 101, 102 TFEU), mergers (Merger Regulation139/2004), and for the application and receiving state aid (Art. 107 TFEU). Furthermore, the course teaches how to identify legal opportunities for businesses stemming from the free movement rules, and for example the possibility of actions for damages under EU law. Although it shall not be any substitute for specialist knowledge, the course provides a basic level of working knowledge of EU law.

Description
The course introduces the legal framework and the basic economic provisions of the EU. The operating approach is a mix of stand-up teaching for the more technical and theoretical subjects, and a series of case studies on topics which are particularly relevant to the business community: the basic legal principles of cooperation and harmonisation in the European Union, the four freedoms in the Internal Market and, mainly, competition law in the meaning of mergers, cartels, abuse of dominant positions as well as the European state aid control system and relevant provisions.
