Webinar Series: The Post-Pandemic Future of Global Value Chains: Implications for Asia

23-Nov-2020 1400hrs - 1530hrs

Enhancing systematic trade and investment integration through engagement in Global Value Chains (GVCs) has remained an integral element of Asia’s overall economic progress over the years. The COVID-19 pandemic and the continuing trade tensions between the US and China have exposed the vulnerabilities of the GVCs in Asia and beyond. Join us in this webinar as we explore what the post-pandemic future of GVCs would look like in the region, and ask the following questions:

• Will there be fundamental changes to patterns of GVC-led integration?
• Will firms actively explore relocations for their production activities?
• How will Asian emerging markets contend with a new post-pandemic normal?

Moderator: Dr Sasidaran Goplan, Senior Research Fellow, Nanyang Centre for Emerging Markets

Creating shared value (CSV) embeds a social purpose in the business model to pursue the joint growth of financial performance and social impact.
