Globalisation, technology and policy are key factors influencing the direction and nature of trade in the future. Trade is an important contributor to our economic prosperity and these changing patterns are shaping the attitudes of businesses. How will policy changes such as Brexit and Trump’s withdrawal of the US from the Trans-Pacific Partnership affect Australia and New Zealand?

Panellists in Canberra are

- Mark Cully, Chief Economist, Department of Industry, Innovation and Science
- Michael Wesley, Professor of International Affairs and Dean of the College of Asia the Pacific at Australian National University
- Kirk Pengilly, Musician, best known as a member of INXS
- Kate Carnell, Small Business and Family Enterprise Ombudsman
- Kieran Gilbert from Sky News will facilitate the discussion.

Panellists will discuss the impact of the transition to a knowledge economy on trade composition and how can new technologies and the growth in online platforms shape trade in the future?

We hope you are able to join us for this event.
