China and the Rise of Electric Vehicles
VIEW EVENT DETAILSCo-hosted with WITA
China is on track to become the largest exporter of autos this year.
Led by BYD, Chinese companies are making significant inroads into markets all around the world, including Europe with their low-priced, high-quality electric vehicles that have benefitted from massive subsidization. What does the rapid growth of the Chinese automotive industry mean for the global automotive market and trade policy? How should governments respond? How should environmental factors be considered? Speakers include Michael Dunne, CEO, ZoZoGo; Brian Janovitz, Chief Counsel for China Trade Enforcement, Office of the U.S. Trade Representative; Jeffrey I. Kessler, Partner, WilmerHale; Hosuk Lee-Makiyama, Director of European Centre for International Political Economy (ECIPE), and Wendy Cutler, Vice President, ASPI, who moderated the discussion.
This event was held in partnership with the Washington International Trade Association.
