Abstract
The second International Conference entitled ‘Harmonisation of Private Antitrust Enforcement: A Central and Eastern European Perspective’ was held in Supraśl (Poland) on 29–30 June 2017. It was organized jointly by the Faculty of Law of the University of Białystok (Department of Public Economic Law) and the Centre for Antitrust and Regulatory Studies (CARS, University of Warsaw). The conference focused on issues connected to the implementation of Directive 2014/104/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council of 26 November 2014 on certain rules governing actions for damages under national law for infringements of the competition law provisions of the Member States and of the European Union (hereinafter, the Damages Directive). This year’s edition of the Conference was a continuation of an idea initiated by its predecessor, an international conference under the same name that took place in Supraśl on 2–4 July 2015, which focused on expectations and postulates concerning the transposition of the Damages Directive into national laws. The 2nd Conference has gathered numerous competition law researchers primarily from countries of Central and Eastern Europe (CEE).
