Arnout Koeman, counsel Competition Law at La Gro

We are pleased to announce that Arnout Koeman joined La Gro as counsel and will be leading the Competition Law Team in close cooperation with Pieter van den Oord.

Arnout has extensive experience of national and European competition law across all market sectors. His advisory and litigation practice focuses on state aid, cartels, positions of dominance and merger notifications to the European Commission, the Dutch Consumer and Market Authority and the Dutch Care Authority. He also specialises in Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) regulations.

Furthermore, Arnout has a great deal of expertise in complex mass actions (WAMCA) and civil proceeding enforcement, both within and beyond competition law. He will be developing this expertise further within La Gro.

Arnout graduated from Utrecht University in 2011 and did an Erasmus exchange at the University of Toulouse (UT1). Before joining La Gro in 2024, he worked at leading law firms in Amsterdam for 12 years. He is also a member of the Dutch Association for Competition Law and the International Association of Young Lawyers (“AIJA”).

With his experience and expertise, we, as La Gro, will be able to distinguish ourselves even further within competition law and create further growth from our Competition and European law practice.
