0:00.0	Good afternoon and welcome to this seminar, which is the last one in the series of sales lunchtime seminars.
0:10.0	This term, it gives me a great pleasure to welcome our speaker today, Professor Pablo Ibaneth Colombo,
0:17.0	who is a professor of law at the London School of Economics and also a visiting professor at the
0:23.3	College of Europe in Bruch. I think for those of us who work in the field of competition law,
