    Dear all: 

    I am happy to announce the Virtual Market Design Seminar, which will start this week. The idea is to provide an alternative to our seminars cancelled due to travel restrictions brought on by the Covid-19.

    The seminar will be on Zoom, every two weeks, on Monday at 4:00-5:00pm (Paris time zone). The first talk will be exceptionally on Thursday April 9, at 2:00pm (Paris time zone).

    Upcoming presentations are:

    • Thursday, April 9, 2:00pm (Paris UTC).
      Maarten Janssen (University of Vienna): "Regulating Product Communication".
    • Monday, April 20, 4:00pm (Paris UTC).
      Scott Duke Kominers (Harvard Business School): "Redistribution through Markets" (with P. Dworczak and M. Akbarpour).
    • Monday, May 4, 4:00pm (Paris UTC).
      Renato Gomez (Toulouse School of Economics): "Regulating Platform Fees under Price Parity" (with A. Mantovani).
    • Monday, May 18, 4:00pm (Paris UTC).
      Benny Moldovanu (University of Bonn): "tba".

    Organizers are Olivier Bos (Paris 2), Nicolas Fugger (Cologne), Vitali Gretschko (ZEW), Helene Mass (Bonn), Marion Ott (ZEW), Martin Pollrich (Bonn), and Nora Szech (KIT).
