Join ÑÇÖÞÇéÉ« experts in international trade and members of the UK Trade Policy Observatory (UKTPO), who will be in conversation discussing whether the multilateral trading system is all but dead and the challenges and opportunities for the US-UK trade relationship.

Speakers:

• Emily Lydgate, Professor of Environmental Law, Co-Director of the UK Trade Policy Observatory and Deputy Director of the Centre for Inclusive Trade Policy. 
• Michael Gasiorek,  Professor of Economics, Co-Director of the UK Trade Policy Observatory, and the Centre for Inclusive Trade Policy.

The event will be followed by an informal networking reception, which will be an excellent opportunity to meet with fellow Sussex alumni and make new connections, as well as to meet University staff and hear about the latest developments and news from Sussex.
