Our Scholars 2022 – Vidak Stanić

Your current occupation and country of work?
I work as a lawyer in Crnogorski Telekom, the biggest telco company in Montenegro. I currently hold the position of Chief corporate and commercial specialist and mostly am responsible for public procurement procedures, consumer protection, competition protection and corporate governance.

How you use European law in your work?
Much of my daily work comprises of international projects, as I work in a large multinational company. My tasks include internal cooperation among companies operating across European markets, as well as partnering with international companies willing to do business with us. Having knowledge acquired through this course is a definite asset.

How you benefitted from the scholarship and the gained knowledge?
Completing the ERA’s summer course on European Antitrust Law will further demonstrate my commitment to learn, build on and apply my new skills to help my clients and my company achieve success.
This particularly matters in a developing market in which these skills are in short supply.
It will also help me expand my professional network, enabling access to established professionals I otherwise might have not chance to connect with.
Achieved in a setting of excellence and creative collaboration, the course will enable me to transfer gained knowledge and interdisciplinary analysis related to the current developments in European law. I am confident that the results will benefit my community as a whole.
