International Business and New Geopolitical Realities

In a situation of increasing geopolitical tensions, the world economy faces a number of challenges. Multilateral structures for regulating international trade are eroding and thereby losing normativity. Global value chains are perceived as increasingly fragile and there are clear trends towards regionalisation. For a small, but highly internationalised economy, like the Swedish, these developments have an acute relevance. To understand how these challenges are perceived by the Swedish business community and how they could be met, Anna Stellinger, Director International Affairs Global Trade and EU Affairs at the Confederation of Swedish Enterprise,  will give a presentation and participate in a seminar on the theme International Business and New Geopolitical Realities.
