Throughout the past months, various actors in the EU have been sounding the alarm bells regarding overcapacities generated by Chinese production in a number of key sectors. Will the overcapacity set China, the EU, and the US on a dangerous course of trade confrontation in 2024? What are the policy options the three actors have at hand to address this issue? And how should companies incorporate all of these considerations in their business strategy?

Join us on 29th April for the fresh insights from Rhodium Group on China’s overcapacity outlook, as well as for a discussion with European industry representatives on their on-the-ground experience dealing with overcapacities.

This year marks the 20th anniversary of China’s accession to the World Trade Organization (WTO). The past two decades of China’s WTO membership coincided with phenomenal economic and trade growth in the country. While the reforms undertaken by China over these years have significantly accelerated cross-border trade flows and led to it becoming the largest global trader in goods and second largest trader in services, debate persists over how and to what extent China has implemented its WTO commitments.

On 9th December, this year’s annual conference will deliver insightful commentary on China’s 20 years of engagement with the WTO, how the country is expected to position itself as the WTO evolves, and the ways China can contribute to WTO reform and revitalise the multilateral trade mechanism. Through keynote speeches and panel discussions, our guest speakers (former chief trade negotiators, think tank experts and global business leaders) will present their perspectives on these topics, and examine how to preserve the core values of the multilateral trade system in the years to come.
