🌍 Yesterday, we attended the Re-imagining the Future of Trade event by ICC United Kingdom in partnership with the International Centre for Digital Trade and Innovation (iC4DTI), as proud media partners. The event launched a roadmap to digitalise UK trade—a structured, actionable strategy to navigate today’s challenges and transition towards a future of paperless, data-driven, and sustainable trade. We began the event with welcomes from Paul Landless, Clifford Chance and Chris Southworth, ICC United Kingdom. Keynote speeches followed, featuring: ➡️ Lord Karan Bilimoria, ICC United Kingdom, who highlighted the critical role of digital trade in today’s economy. ➡️ Martin Kent, HM Trade Commissioner for Asia Pacific, discussing government priorities for trade digitalisation and growth. 💡 Panel highlights: 1️⃣ Scaling up the benefits of trade digitalisation This session proposed practical steps for SMEs to embrace digital trade, global market opportunities, and the impact of legal and data standard reforms. It emphasised the need for tailored approaches, with the UK roadmap as an example rather than an imperative. Speakers included Chris Southworth, ICC United Kingdom, Ayesha Ali, Department for Business and Trade, Rebecca Shepherd, Clifford Chance, Lars Karlsson, A.P. Moller - Maersk, Oswald Kuyler, Asian Development Bank (ADB), and Vashti Maharaj, The Commonwealth Secretariat 2️⃣ Are we being ambitious enough? This session addressed the risk of digitalising outdated systems without simplifying trade processes. It launched a thought leadership paper envisioning a transformative approach to trade: ultimately, trade could be “just like using a phone”. Speakers included Professor David Hughes, Teesside University, Theodora Christou, CASTL, QMUL, Professor Jun Du, Aston University, Alexander Goulandris, ICE Digital Trade (formerly essDOCS), and Shona Tatchell, EBRD In case you missed it, explore our latest article: Accelerating Digitalisation: Integrating Economies through Strategic Roadmaps, where Chris Southworth and Mahika Ravi Shankar discuss the importance of structured strategies for the future of trade — link in the comments section below. 👇
