Abstract
In the evolving business landscape, innovation and research have become crucial drivers of growth. However, their continuity depends on a thriving competitive environment. If monopolistic practices and anti-competitive behavior go unchecked, new businesses, efficient distribution networks, and sustainable markets will struggle to succeed. While market dominance is a natural goal for organizations and not inherently negative, its misuse or abuse must be strictly regulated. Competition law plays a vital role in ensuring a fair and balanced marketplace, providing equal opportunities for both established players and new entrants.
