The Capitol Forum will host Dr. Hal Singer, an expert in antitrust, consumer protection, and regulatory economics, for a conference call examining the competitive and legal implications of Airbnb’s pricing practices. This conversation will focus on Dr. Singer’s recent article, “The Antitrust Case Against Airbnb”, which analyzes how common pricing algorithms such as Airbnb’s “Smart Pricing” tool may facilitate price coordination among hosts, inflate rents, and raise significant antitrust concerns in two‑sided platform markets.
