Has globalisation peaked?Join us to hear from the top trade experts at: Global trade in transition? The world after covid-19

Asia Trade Insight Hour
Dear Bhinneka,
Global trade has been on its knees since Trump started a trade war with China. Covid-19 dealt the last blow. With borders closed and travel banned, a wave of de-globalisation looms on the horizon. Have we seen the peak of global trade? Is international and regional collaboration still possible? What is the future of free trade?

Join Global trade in transition? The world after covid-19 - a free webinar taking place on Wednesday September 9th at 2:30pm SGT/HKT (view your time zone here ) - to get direction from:
Secretary for commerce and economic development
Hong Kong Special Administrative Region
Deputy director general
European Commission
Managing editor, Asia, and global editorial lead, trade and globalisation
The Economist Intelligence Unit
Yours sincerely,
Laurel West
Managing director, Economist Events, Asia

The Asia Trade Insight Hours are part of Asia Trade Week, February 22nd – 25th 2021.

Throughout the week of February 22nd 2021, a global audience and world-class speakers will take stock of what happened in 2020, scrutinise the changing patterns of global trade, examine the trade community through a critical lens and assess how businesses are dealing with economic, political and environmental issues. 

The programme will include a series of online panel discussions and masterclasses accessible to a global audience as well as a physical summit in Hong Kong.
