In this session you'll hear from Dr Marta Soprana, Fellow in International Political Economy at LSE.

She is particularly interested in exploring the relationship between emerging technologies and international trade from a legal and policy perspective.

Prior to joining the LSE, she worked a trade policy advisor for several international organizations – including FAO, ITC, UNCTAD, UNESCAP, World Bank and WTO – and national governments, and supported private firms’ efforts to access and operate in foreign markets.
