When choosing a college, I faced a major dilemma: whether I found more fulfillment in counting money or reading legal provisions. In the end, I took a middle path and studied law and economics. As part of my work at HAVEL & PARTNERS, this dual focus continues on the antitrust team (#kartelparty). While there are significantly fewer legal provisions to deal with, this is more than offset by the diverse economic implications. Antitrust law is unique. Uniquely complex and constantly evolving. In addition to being an avid user of Slov-Lex, I’m an equally passionate cyclist (road and MTB) and traveler, because, as the classic saying goes, “home is wherever you are, but best of all.”
