Prof. Dr. Ulrich Heimeshoff
Director
Prof. Dr. Ulrich Heimeshoff is a recognized expert in competition and regulatory economics, with a particular focus on network industries – especially telecommunications. He has many years of experience in economic consulting, particularly in the empirical analysis of market power, the quantification of damages in cartel cases, and the economic assessment of regulatory measures.
His economic and empirical analyses are regularly used in complex proceedings – on both the claimant and defendant side – in sectors such as logistics, retail, automotive, and industrials.
Ulrich Heimeshoff is Professor of Economics at the Düsseldorf Institute for Competition Economics (DICE) at Heinrich Heine University Düsseldorf. He is the author of the book “Praxis der Kartellschadensermittlung” (2023) and has published numerous articles on competition economics – particularly in the telecommunications sector – in national and international academic journals.
