The title of his presentation is "New methodologies for margin estimation with multi-product companies".

Abstract: Marginal cost is a key variable in many microeconomics models. However, economists in industrial organizations usually believe (with very rare exceptions) that marginal cost cannot be observed, so it must be estimated. Various techniques have been designed in empirical IO to do this using demand, production or cost functions. The extension of these techniques to multiproduct firms is not obvious because of the input allocation problem. This presentation provides two additional approaches to estimating marginal costs with multiproduct firms using duality theory, describing the methodologies of Dhyne et al. (2021) and Dhyne et al. (2022) with empirical applications
