This episode of the Weekly Tradecast looks at digitalization and its future with Torbjörn Fredriksson, head of UNCTAD’s e-commerce and digital economy branch.

If done right and governed well, e-commerce and the digital economy can drive growth, innovation, development and better use of our resources.

With such heavy reliance on technology, what are the implications for our privacy, our safety and our rights?  Tune into Torbjörn Fredriksson to find out why the way we shape digitalization is so important for development and our future.
