Open Markets Institute

We are a team of journalists, researchers, lawyers, and advocates working together to expose and reverse the stranglehold that corporate monopolies have on our country.

Our Mission

The Open Markets Institute is a Washington, D.C.-based non-profit think tank that uses research and journalism to help people relearn how to use competition policy to build stronger democracies, more just and equitable societies, more innovative and sustainable economies, and a more secure and peaceful world. By combining policy, legal, and market structure expertise with sophisticated communications and outreach efforts, Open Markets seeks not only to hold today’s monopolies accountable for abuse of power, but to rebuild an economic system where progress is easier to achieve, because power is far more widely and equitably distributed. Open Markets works at the vanguard of antimonopoly to achieve legal, political, and societal victories that empower everyone.
