Personnel: Margrethe Vestager at European Commission (Executive VP for Competition & Digital)

1 check · 4/9/2026

The record conflates two distinct roles with different start dates. The source confirms Vestager held the Competition role from 2014–2024, but the Executive VP for Competition & Digital role only began in December 2019 (not 2014). The startDate of 2014 is accurate for the Competition Commissioner position but inaccurate for the Executive VP title. The endDate of 2024 is confirmed for both roles. The role title in the record appears to be a hybrid that doesn't precisely match either individual position held.
