Merilampi and the University of Helsinki continue co-operation on Competition Law tuition

Mr. Olli Wikberg, LL.M., the assistant of the European law in Helsinki University, says: "This course is a welcome addition to our tuition program and it responses to the growing interest towards competition law among the law students. This co-operation with the Merilampi lawyers provides a very practice-oriented approach. The participants of prior courses have been content with the concept: they have experienced a useful and motivating way of studying the competition law. At the same time, the course prepares ground for their advanced studies of competition law and for the work in the area of competition law after their graduation."

Mr. Arttu Mentula, Attorney-at-Law, Head of the Competition and EU Law team in Merilampi, comments: "The significance of Competition Law is constantly increasing as the risks of competition law violations have increased also in Finland. This increases also the need for law graduates specialized in competition issues. Through this course we are able to give the participants hands-on experience on the diverse challenges connected with the assignments of competition law, as well as give them practical examples of solutions to the problems."

From the Competition and EU Law team of Merilampi the lawyers contributing to the execution of this course are Partner Arttu Mentula, Partner Erkko Ruohoniemi, and Associate, LL.M. (Leuven) Salla Mäntykangas, all lawyers with wide experience in the areas of competition law and public procurement.
