State Aid Uncovered Blog

In Lexxion’s State Aid Uncovered blog, Prof. Phedon Nicolaides publishes weekly critical analyses of recent State aid judgments and decisions.

Guest contributions from other State aid experts will also be published on the blog at irregular intervals to complement the content of the blog posts.
