Linus Hoffmann

Mr. Linus Hoffmann is a Lecturer in the Law department at the University of Strathclyde, affiliated with the Faculty of Humanities & Social Sciences. His research employs law & economics frameworks to analyze competition, commodification, and distribution dynamics in the digital economy. Key focuses include digital platforms' strategies for controlling and monetizing information, competition law enforcement's impact on market landscapes, and the broader commodification of digital resources. Recent work explores how the separation of 'noise' from relevant information in cyberspace becomes a commercialized asset.

He teaches courses on competition law, law & economics, and company law, including specialized seminars like 'Competition Law and the Digital Economy' and 'Law & Economics for Digital Markets.' His publications span academic journals and policy contributions, including analysis of the EU Digital Markets Act and House of Lords Digital Assets Bill evidence. Hoffmann seeks interdisciplinary collaborations with computer scientists specializing in NLP for future projects.
