| Abstract: | In the Huawei/ZTE case, the CJEU had to rule on a competition law defence to a patent violation claim. The Court thus took a stand in the raging debate how to balance IP protection with market access. The talk will add an evolutionary approach to reading this judgment. This may provide an analytical framework for discussing innovative steps in legal rulings under the specific circumstances of the European institutional design.
