Morten is a partner and co-head of Bird & Bird's international Competition & EU group and leads the Competition & EU team in Denmark and Sweden as well. He has a particular focus on applying competition & EU law as a tool to achieve specific and measurable business objectives for clients.

Morten advises on a broad range of competition law cases, from purely advisory over compliance and transactional to acting as third party complainant in larger, strategic competition law cases. There is most often a technology element involved. He has solid international experience and an outlook based on working for more than 12 years as a lawyer based in Brussels, which includes doing a number of fascinating competition cases in many countries across Europe as well as Asia.

Over the years, Morten has represented clients in a large number of legal procedures before the EU Court of Justice in Luxembourg. Amongst these, he has won four appeal cases against the EU Commission, including a state aid case before the Grand Chamber of the EU court of justice which ultimately led to the EU Commission's Legal Service turning around and choosing me to represent the Commission in a number of other state aid cases.
