Abstract

The International Competition Network (ICN) was created in 2001 and enters its second decade.
Initially composed by 14 competition authorities, it is nowadays composed of 126 members and it
faces different – or at least additional – challenges compared to those of its early years. In particular,
the diversity of its members is an important challenge since the membership is composed of
authorities in various moments of history, development and enforcement of competition policies. This article analyzes ICN’s new phase, addressing both its new challenges as well as Brazil’s active role within the organization.
