“Being a law student with almost zero legal background in competition law, this internship has given me great insight into how competition law correlates with different economic and commercial areas. During my internship, I had the opportunity to apply skills gained from the university on a practical level while enhancing my critical thinking and written communications skills. I received guidance throughout the process of drafting my project, particularly on effectively conveying the most important issues to the reader. On top of that, I enhanced my commercial awareness and learned about the challenges of competition law in contemporary issues.

“During my internship, I gained valuable insight and knowledge in EU Competition Law, a relatively unfamiliar area of law to me. This opportunity proved crucial in improving my analytical skills through conducting lengthy research on high profile cases that reached the EU Courts. I researched the latest developments in gun-jumping cases and the recent General Court’s annulment of the European Commission’s decision to prohibit the Hutchison-O2 merger (CK Telecoms UK Investments Ltd v European Commission). The fact that I dealt with the latest developments was particularly exciting since there are still many unresolved issues and the legal and business communities are still trying to ascertain the future development of EU Competition Law. Following detailed feedback and guidance from Dr. Agisilaou and Trojan Economics, I produced two articles that were published in Dikaiosyni (Cyprus’ legal portal).”

Furthermore, this experience made me realise the importance of not only being motivated and having confidence in your work but also having a proper supervision can help you achieve excellent results on projects.

"On the whole I had a brilliant internship experience. During my time as an intern I was able to independently work on projects while learning from the experiences and expertise of the staff. Through the study of literature, articles and case law for the preparation of a document with Q&A on the role of economic experts in competition matters, both in the administrative procedure before the European Commission and the context of court trials, I got a deeper knowledge on issues regarding competition law and administrative law. At the end of the day, it was enormously rewarding to be able to see some of the things I learnt in law school come to live in practice. The internship at Trojan Economics proved to be an enriching and fruitful experience for a young law graduate."
