Trade, Supply Chains, and Geopolitics: Policy and Practice

The global trading system is changing at a rapid pace: Washington's use of tariffs is straining the rules-based order; Beijing’s export-led growth raises global competitiveness and capacity questions. Europe is caught between these competing models. It wants to be open and green—yet also secure and competitive. 

Our panel explores how these political objectives are translated into business decisions; what de-risking means for global supply chains; and who ultimately bears the cost of resilience. Join a fast-paced discussion with leading voices from academia, business, and government, including a Q&A with PSIA students and invited stakeholders.

With: 

• Patrice Bergamini, Diplomatic Adviser to Rodolphe Saadé, Chairman & CEO of CMA CGM Group and CMA CGM Executive Committee member;
• Thierry Mayer, Professor, Department of Economics, Sciences Po; Scientific advisor in CEPII, Research Fellow at CEPR (International Trade Programme);

Moderated by Nicolas Kohler-Suzuki,  Associate researcher, Jacques Delors Institute.
