The trends shaping the Future of Trade

The Future of Trade

DMCC, the world leader in global trade, gathered more than 150 experts across five continents for ten months to ask: What is The Future of Trade?

The synthesis of our exhaustive research and in-depth data analysis is presented in an exclusive report “The Future of Trade”, which was unveiled simultaneously at Google Campus London and Google AstroLabs in Dubai on March 17, 2016.

An expert panel chaired by Ian King of Sky News included Gautam Sashittal, Chief Executive Officer of DMCC, Baroness Wheatcroft, Non Executive Director of Fiat Chrysler and former editor of The Wall Street Journal Europe and Simon Williams, Chief Economist Middle East, Africa and Europe at HSBC.

Our experts examined how the digitisation of trade around the world will unlock future opportunity and change the global flow of goods, talent and finance while considering the impact on supply chain efficiency and international regulation.
