Welcome to Escape Forward. I’m Cristina Caffarra. I’m delighted to be starting this podcast, which is a discussion with people I enjoy and I learn a lot from. And it’s called “Escape Forward” because I really don’t see how one can formulate antitrust policy, which is my original field, without reaching out into other economic policy areas: as I keep saying, antitrust should not be an island, not a specialist discipline just for lawyers and nerds with its own esoteric, mostly bogus rituals – but should be much more aware of what else happens around us and affects how markets behave.

She is now convening discussions, writing and speaking mainly around the digital economy, and “connecting the dots” between antitrust and other areas of economic policy.
