Global Trade Dialogue 2020: Tech transforming trade and the economy in a post-COVID world

As 2020 draws to a close, Asia House explored a range of recent developments that could change the trajectory of global trade and investment, following a year defined by COVID-19.

An already-present backlash against globalisation has been bolstered by the pandemic, but the crisis has also accelerated digital trends, with rapid tech innovation across the global economy redefining business models, sectors, and ways of life.

More recently, breakthroughs in the search for a COVID-19 vaccine have moved markets around the world, while a new administration in the White House could herald a shift in global geopolitics. In Asia, the world’s largest trade deal – the Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership (RCEP) – was finally concluded, marking a milestone moment for Asian leadership in world trade, and for ASEAN in particular.

Asia House explored these issues and the role of tech in global business during the 2020 Asia House Global Trade Dialogue, convened digitally on Monday 7 December.
