SUMMARY:Digital Competition Conference 2027
DESCRIPTION:The rapid diffusion of AI and the emergence of AI agents capable of independently accessing tools\, initiating processes\, and acting on users’ behalf may fundamentally reshape how information and economic activity are organized online. These developments are raising new questions about market power\, entry\, innovation\, and control across the technology stack. At the same time\, the regulatory and enforcement disputes that have defined competition policy in tech in recent years continue to evolve\, as the implications of incumbent platform power become increasingly consequential. \nThe Digital Competition Conference 2027 (DCC ‘27)\, taking place February 9-10\, 2027 in Washington\, DC\, will examine all of these developments through a broad inquiry into competition in digital markets. Building on the success of DCC ‘26 – which brought together participants from 37 countries – the conference will continue to serve as a forum for rigorous\, interdisciplinary discussion on the future of competition in the digital economy across key sectors and jurisdictions. The conference aims to advance a shared understanding of competition in AI and digital markets among researchers\, policymakers\, regulators\, business\, litigators\, technologists\, and civil society experts. \nDiscussion will center on research results and methods\, what stakeholders know and still need to learn about competition challenges and remedies\, and how to create a virtuous cycle where research more effectively informs policymaking and enforcement while regulation enables more effective research. The conference will feature research talks and policy discussions focused on a range of technology markets – as they have been traditionally offered\, and as they are being reshaped by AI – including markets for search\, chatbots\, and AI assistants; consumer and enterprise software\, including browsers\, apps\, harnesses\, and cloud services; advertising; social media; messaging; and connected devices.
