Career

Yves focuses his practice on EU competition law, in particular merger control and antitrust investigations. In recent years, he secured early termination without fines or very favorable outcomes in several antitrust and cartel proceedings. His antitrust practice also includes providing tailored compliance advice as well as conducting audits and risk assessments.

Yves works relentlessly to help clients achieve their objectives, by incorporating antitrust and competition law in their vision and strategy, corporate values and business practices. He provides strategic and practical advice to clients on new distribution models in the online space, where the EU enforcement agenda has been on the rise. Yves particularly enjoys providing added-value in multi-disciplinary cases involving intellectual property and IT, including content, big data, and the Internet of Things. He has significant experience counseling global and international trade associations, particularly on the design and implementation of industry-wide codes of conduct, standards and best practices.

Over the years, Yves has gained substantial exposure to the media, entertainment, sports and leisure, smart mobility, and biotech industries.
