This article provides an overview of how standardisation agreements are viewed under the European Commission guidelines as well as the Commission DG for Enterprise White Paper on Standardisation of Information and Communication Technologies, the latter being a necessary part of the regulatory framework for standardisation agreements in EU. It sugests that as the Guidelines see the pro-competition effect of satandardisation agreements as the norma, A101 will not generally be applicable and the antagonistic interface of standardisation agreements and A101TFEU will be exceptional, but a role for A102TFEU remains.
