Forskergruppen samler kolleger som underviser og forsker innenfor de samme rettsområdene. Utover undervisning og forskning, arrangeres det jevnlig seminarer, enten internseminarer eller seminarer med eksterne foredragsholdere. Disse er åpen for både studenter, kolleger og andre interesserte.

Flere av forskergruppens medlemmer er også tilknyttet Bergen Center for Competition law and Economics (BECCLE) og The Centre on the Europeanization of Norwegian Law (CENTENOL).
