About this Event

On May 19, a few days after the conclusion of the Trump-Xi summit, we will welcome Wendy Cutler, who will give us her perspective on the recent developments in the US-China relationship from a trade view as well as reflect on her long career with USTR.

Wendy Cutler is the Senior Vice President at the Asia Society Policy Institute (ASPI), based in Washington, D.C. In this role, she focuses on leading initiatives that address challenges related to trade, investment, economic security, and innovation, as well as women’s empowerment in Asia. She joined ASPI following an illustrious career of nearly three decades as a diplomat and negotiator in the Office of the U.S. Trade Representative (USTR), where she also served as Acting Deputy U.S. Trade Representative. During her USTR career, she worked on a range of bilateral, regional, and multilateral trade negotiations and initiatives, including the U.S.-Korea Free Trade Agreement, the Trans-Pacific Partnership, U.S.-China negotiations, and the WTO Financial Services negotiations.


Moderating will be Mika Hoodbhoy of the Wonky China Happy Hour team.
