APAC SwedCham Webinar: Jacob Wallenberg
As Asia continues to play a central role in global investment, growth, and trade, the presence of European businesses in the region is becoming increasingly vital. At the same time, rising trends of regionalisation are reshaping the landscape of trade and investment.

We are pleased to welcome Jacob Wallenberg, Chairman of Investor AB and the Confederation of Swedish Enterprise, who will share his insights on these developments - both current and future - and how Nordic and European businesses can navigate the challenges and seize the opportunities in this dynamic environment.

This online session, organised by the Swedish Chamber of Commerce in China, will be moderated by Peter Ling-Vannerus, Chief Representative of SEB Beijing. The session will include a Q&A segment following the presentation.

We are sincerely grateful to SEB for their support in making this event possible.

This virtual event is open exclusively to members of the Swedish Chambers of Commerce in APAC. Log-in details will be sent to registered attendees closer to the event.

This webinar is free of charge and open to SweCham members only.
