His research interests lie at the intersection of innovation, antitrust, and intellectual property law, particularly in the context of digital transformations and ICT sector regulation. He employs empirical legal methods to analyze competition dynamics in multi-sided platforms, algorithmic collusion, and patent aggregation.
The most recent publications reflect a strong trend in digital competition law, focusing on market definition for digital platforms, algorithmic collusion, and judicial enforcement of EU competition law. These works combine doctrinal analysis with interdisciplinary insights from economics and data science.
His scientific recognition includes:
- 2024 Jacques Lassier Prize (International League of Competition Law)
- 2024 Licensing Executive Society - Italian Chapter Award for best IP research
- 2016 Elena Messina Dissertation Prize
Galli has advised and collaborated on research projects related to digital markets and competition law, including the ENTraNCE for Judges series and studies on multi-sided platforms. While no formal grants are listed, his Marie Skłodowska-Curie fellowship and PhD funding indicate substantial research support. He has not supervised any students listed in the text but contributes to academic discourse through collaborative research and policy-relevant outputs.
