The Awards Jury comprises the Board, the Academic and Business Steering Committees, the Student Committee, and the Editorial Committee. Each of these contribute to the Awards selection process. The Editorial Committee of Concurrences selects the pool of all antitrust writings accepted for nomination. The Steering Committees selects the award-winning soft laws, and makes a short list of the best academic and business articles. The Board then selects the award-winning academic and business articles among those. The Student Committee mentored by Board member Prof. William Kovacic selects the award-winning student paper.
