The Poster Session is the perfect opportunity to showcase your research in competition law and/or economics. The aim of the Poster Session is to allow you to interact with representatives of law firms, economic consultancies and international organizations, and explain to them the work you have done.
The Poster Session will take place during the first day of the festival, in a dedicated exposition space, allowing participants to read the content of the poster that will remain available for the entire duration of the festival.
What is a poster?
A poster is a visual method to present your research or insight into a competition related topic. It contains information in a condensed format and, due to limited space, it could be beneficial to use visual communication (such as graphs, charts, or tables) to convey the information in a concise and effective way.
Content of the poster
You are free to choose the content of your poster (but it must be a competition related topic)! If you are already working on a research project, either for a university course or for your thesis, that is great! If you need some inspiration, you can also have a look at the topics discussed during the sessions of previous editions of the LCF.
Please note that the poster should contain original work. No copyright protected content should be included in the poster (e.g., you cannot present somebody else’s research as your own). Literature reviews and reviews of existing case law in which you present your own conclusions are valid topics, as long as you acknowledge the original authors. Violators will be excluded from participating in the Poster Session.
Be reminded that a poster should be a way to attract an audience and engage in a meaningful discussion. You should not include every bit of information in the poster; instead, select the most relevant information and make sure that there are ideas to discuss with your audience. The poster should be structured to help the reader navigate through the information provided. You can do this in several ways, such as numerating sections, creating a map etc.
To ensure that any interested reader can reach you for questions even outside the time allocated for the Poster Session, each poster should clearly indicate the name of the creator and a contact email.
Structure of the poster
The poster should have a vertical orientation and should be optimized to be printed on an A1 sheet, to ensure that people can distinguish its content from a distance of approximately 1.5m. Posters can be both in black and white or in colors, but the font should be the same for all posters (Arial). Posters should be submitted as pdf files.
A balanced poster is generally structured as follows:
- 40%-50% is made up by text;
- 30-40% by images and graphs; and
- the remaining space is blank.
If you plan to use pictures, please be sure that you have the right to reproduce that image and that the quality will scale well with the A1 format.
