The WTO is at an inflection point. Members have an opportunity to enable the organization to play a central role to enable a new generation of entrepreneurs, innovators and non‑profit and business leaders to grow their businesses and reach new markets. Participants from business, non-profits and government will discuss how the WTO could take forward efforts to modernize the global, rules-based trade framework by facilitating micro and small businesses and improving access to the global digital economy.
