Our Curious Amalgam Podcast

November 10, 2025

London partner Matthew Hall hosted the November 10 episode of the ABA’s Our Curious Amalgam podcast: “How Should Intent Apply in Competition Law? A Discussion With Maya-Salomé Garnier.”

The concept of intent is usually considered of little relevance to EU competition law enforcement and practice. But is that the reality and should this change? Maya-Salomé Garnier, lecturer at Aix-Marseille University, joins Matthew Hall to discuss her book “Intent in Competition Law”, which is the published version of her 2023 PhD thesis. Listen to this episode to learn more about the real role of intent in competition law and how an understanding of this can be used in practice.

Our Curious Amalgam explores topics in antitrust, competition, consumer protection, data protection, and privacy law around the world with leading experts in those areas. It is an amalgam because it is a group of diverse topics all in one place. It is curious because it gets the experts and asks them in-depth questions.

This episode is also available on Apple Podcasts and YouTube.
